Job title: Personal Consultant

I have been in Working Links for six and a half years as a frontline consultant. In that time I have worked with some of the most disadvantaged clients through the WIN Project and in some of the most deprived areas. I have seen some very difficult cases of hardship and deprivation throughout this time.

I have worked as a volunteer with homeless people in London and have also done paid work with the homeless. I have also worked in social care for clients with mental health issues.

I have done a great deal of charity work, including Amnesty International, Oxfam, famine relief etc. I am willing to devote my time to good causes without payment as I feel lucky to have had the chances I have had that others have not. I have experience of multi agency working with various charity organisations in order to work towards a common purpose. This involved dealing with local authorities to organise charity events involving all aspects of health and safety, funding and publicity. This work was unpaid.

I work as a homeopath (alternative health practitioner) and have worked with the clients including drug users in the East End of Glasgow using this.

I believe everyone should be given an equal chance. We all have something to offer and all have some sort of potential. I work as a homeopath (alternative health practitioner) and have worked with the clients including drug users in the East End of Glasgow using this.
