Summary

I attend the same school from the age of 4 to 16 years old.


In some school holidays I did work from L.A Services Sunderland.

I also spent a lot of time at our family holiday home which is based on a working farm were I helped out from time to time.


Last year I attend a residential stay with NCS (National Citizen Service) were we did different activities , exploring teamwork, project management and communication.


Upon leaving school I started to work with Fairweathery Joinery hoping to start an apprenticeship in the September 2024 which didn't happen due to unforeseen circumstances but continued to work with them for the next year to gain experience in joinery and hoping to arrange the apprenticeship to start September 2025, unfortunately this has not happened.

I an hoping to continue my learning journey and qualify to become a joiner.
