Well, it has been 8 weeks since I handed in my notice at a job that (for the most part) I had adored. We all know that there are often moments in a lifetime that make you realise that this is it, one life, one shot, one opportunity to change not only your life but the lives of others.
2 weeks into being an unpaid, volunteer, 1:1 ASD support worker and I have never felt richer!
To see the faces and hear the gratitude from the staff and students that I am able to support, even just a tiny bit, has been overwhelming!
I am so thankful to Awesome Archie. He has taught us, as parents and educators, so so much.
Enormous thanks to the welcoming and jolly lovely staff at the William Gilpin C of E Primary School. I have rarely met such a friendly and “child centred” bunch of people and I feel truly blessed to be part of the team(ish!) 😉
Roll on the next 10 weeks!!
The Awesome Archie 1:1 Outreach Support Programme is fully booked until September 2022. Please email for details if you would like any support thereafter.
