ABOUT ME
A bit of info!
I live in York and have been volunteering for trans charities and organisations for many years.
Although I've enjoyed a career as a Director and worked in Property Management and Retail for the last 25 years my passion is in healthcare and support for the trans community. Whether this be supporting individuals and families or providing trans awareness training for schools, colleges, and other organisations.
Family support with Mermaids
I joined the fabulous Mermaids family in 2012, volunteering at residentials, supporting families and children, attending events across the country and became a Trustee in 2015 (now retired).
Susie Green CEO and the team work tirelessly to make sure everyone gets the help they need, providing a lifeline for parents and children.
