I’m a social worker and I’ve worked all of my adult life with children, young people and their families and I love this job. I work with people from all walks of life, and I find this incredibly interesting. I learn daily from the people I come into contact with.
On a personal level, how I got involved with SSM is a friend of mine told me that she was helping set up SSM and that they were looking for volunteers. As a family, we had recently been exposed to a serious crisis involving mental health and attempted suicide. I felt really passionately about becoming involved in SSM and wanting to be proactive in helping others who are struggling with their mental health. So, I contacted Jane at SSM and offered my services! And the rest is history, so they say…
