I am committed to making a difference in the wider community and enabling people to support one another. Being part of a diverse community, I am also proud of my identity. With my extensive knowledge and experience in Public Services on several levels ranging from Local and Central Government; Social care; and Health; working with parents and families; Community Inclusion; Arts and Culture; Education; Public Transport; Employment Campaign work, TV/Media and Charitable work, I often championed on equality issues, making positive influences to the wider Diversity, Equity and Inclusion agenda. I am a patient, creative, well-motivated and hard-working person who is passionate about my work. I am a self-starter, resilient and able to work independently as well as working with a team. I am personally committed to building effective relationships and partnerships working with stakeholders, and leading diversity on projects to support building stronger diverse communities.
