Additional Information

I moved to Ireland in 2008 to help my elderly mother through her senior years and where I also worked part time for a Taxi company . I returned to England in 2011 and felt that I could no longer commute daily due to my disability. In 2014 I began volunteering for Cats Protection as a Fosterer but had to give that up recently as it became physically very demanding. It is very frustrating because although I am somewhat disabled I can get about to some degree and my mind is as sharp as it has ever been. Going into the office on a ad-hoc basis would not be a problem as I do drive.


I love a challenge and the bigger the target the more I am motivated.


I really admire everything that Matrix Freedom stands for and have been enthusiastically learning over the past 9-10 months, ever since I saw Iain Clifford's interview with David Icke. I am committed to helping educate others (which I am already doing when and wherever the opportunities present themselves) and help them through the processes as I believe everyone should know about this wonderful opportunity.


I am 63 years old now and whilst I would love the opportunity of working with Matrix Freedom, will absolutely understand if you feel that my age is a barrier to being accepted for this position.


I fully intend to go through the SPC process as soon as I can get the money together

Animal Welfare

I love animals so started volunteering with Cats Protection as a Fosterer in October 2014 and have recently have had to stop as it is quite physically demanding but continue to raise funds and support wherever I can. To date I have fostered and homed 387 cats and kittens
