Gypsy/Traveller Community Health Worker

I am a Community Health Worker for the gypsy/traveller community, and I cover all over Ayrshire. I have been in post since November 2021.

Since the start of my post I have introduced women's health focused groups which happen weekly. These groups help to raise awareness of health inequalities within my community. I have been able to sign post and help people access health services. My post is very successful, and I absolutely love my job.

I have been married now since 2016 and enjoy going to church. We are active members of our church and enjoy spending time with other church members. I have 2 dogs they are pugs, Peaches and Peggy. They are my absolute world and are my babies. I love taking them on long walks at the country Park.
