I am kept busy in my free time by my two boys. My eldest son is neurodivergent which has enabled me to understand the journey parents face to gaining the right support and some of the challenges that are faced by families day to day.

Life Before Ngaged Ltd

Over the last 13 years I have had the privilege of supporting young people within a variety of settings.  After gaining a 2:1 degree in primary education, I spent time in a primary school adapting the curriculum to make it accessible for young people with additional needs. During this time, I also worked as a support worker for young people with complex needs- enabling them to participate in holidays abroad and a variety of community activities.


For the next 5 years I worked full-time in children’s residential care, supporting young people within the home and community to develop their life skills and independence. I have continued with this role as a bank worker alongside my work with Ngaged and have recently completed ADHD training, CSE training and an understanding autism course as part of my continual professional development. I have also completed my NVQ Level 4 in children, young people and families.  

What I Do At Ngaged Ltd

I have been working for Ngaged since 2022 and have had the pleasure of working as both a mentor and tutor. It has been wonderful to support our young people to reach their full potential and have the freedom to be able to do this in a creative and child centred way!
