Summary

I have worked in health since the age of 22 - my first position was working as a support worker in what was St. James Hospital in Portsmouth, in residential drug and alcohol treatment and detoxification.

I then moved to a locked ward in the same hospital, as a support worker, supporting women who had been detained under the mental health act.

I found this role particularly satisfying and rewarding.

I have also worked as a barmaid to support my income.
