I joined Feel Good Factor in 2021 it was great to be involved in the Covid track and trace service, supporting individuals and families that are self-isolating making sure they had everything they need to make a difficult time easier.

Now I work full time for FGF with 2 roles, I am a Community engagement worker which involves planning and running sessions in schools and at FGF offices, which fits well with my previous job as children, youth and family worker at a church. During my time there I planned and run a number of groups including Youth Club, Messy Church, Eco Club and KidFit. It also included a nine day’s holiday club for 22 children aged 8 – 15.

I have started up Eco Club and also co plan and deliver Holiday club during the school breaks. Next year I am running a residential in the YDNP for our families. I also attend community events for FGF.

My children’s work started in Children’s Centres in Seacroft and Chapel Allerton.

In Seacroft the work was very much community focused, and I am glad to be working in that area again.

In my other role I am a Health and Wellbeing coach for the Chapeltown PCN, this involves me helping people with long term medical in a holistic way to engage in activities that will help them both physically and mentally.
