Supporting the homeless with the practical skills learned from my apprenticeship
|
Terri-Ann France
Temporary Accommodation Officer Nottingham City Homes “I’m sure my own experience of homelessness – and my desire then to help other children and families that find themselves in the same situation – gave me the hunger to learn for my apprenticeship. Not having enough food, living on the streets, dealing with the uncertainty – they’re all very real and immediate fears faced by the families I deal with, and ones with which I can fully empathise.” |
