I became a social worker in 2003. I moved to Pathway Care (now Fostering Solutions) in 2010. As a social worker I worked in Child Protection with Northamptonshire County Council before moving to their Adoption Team.

My main role with Fostering Solutions is to support foster families. I also sit on the Panel regularly, and present training courses. I am lucky to work with so many dedicated foster carers and I am in awe of the wonderful work foster carers do, and it is a joy to see how you make so much positive difference to the lives of vulnerable children and young people.

Away from social work I enjoy trying to kp fit, music, theatre, travelling and spending time with my Away from social work I enjoy trying to keep fit, music, theatre, travelling and spending time with my friends and family. I usually do NOT enjoy going to watch Northampton Town Football Club but I go anyway!
