My previous work for many years has focused on encouraging people to flourish and live engaged lives – actively and independently as possible. Now my micro-enterprise also continues this (with additional support to access information, advice, guidance, education and practical support as needed). It can accompany clients, as needed, to activities from friends, family and to make new contacts in their local community. This may involve restarting interests or hobbies (all be it in an adapted way) or trying new things.

Having trained and worked in delivering activities and other health and wellbeing related services I am well equipped to do this – and will continue to undertake CPD as necessary.

So, am here offering some Small Good Stuff, to help you and our community thrive.

Look forward to hearing from you.
