What were you doing 12 years ago?
Working in the retail sector, moving into the people team, recruitment and community engagement.
What are you doing now?
Working for a football club’s community trust – Rochdale AFC Community Trust – as their Inclusion Coordinator. I have organised events, done presentations on cost-of-living IAG and been working on a larger contract for the EFL in delivering sessions on smart meters. It’s been an exciting time of learning new things about the sector as well as making the information accessible to our multicultural community. This has included organising sessions in several languages and formats for example online seminars as well as face-to-face. Having supported 4000 people to access this information as well as completing better off calculations for over 500.
What have you learned along the way?
Every day is a learning day whoever you are, and no one is an expert in everything!
