The Community Counsellor CATS

So this week something amazing happened!
I featured in the Flourish CIC newsletter as Changemaker of the Month! 🥳

I feel so proud and privileged to have seen this supportive network grow over the years so for me to get to feature like this makes me feel like I'm on the cover of Vogue or something! 🤣

What a brilliant half term its been!
We've had the best weather and then to top it off it was the Whit Friday Brass Band Contest up in Saddleworth 🎺🥁
I think it's important to celebrate the little wins and this past week I feel like I've definitely been able to do that after recently hosting my first Neurodivergent Social Entrepreneurs Peer Support Forum 🙌
Realising that I'm neurodivergent has been a real game changer for me in the way that I experience the world around me so I'm so passionate about taking time to recognise/celebrate, recover and reset 🤩
Bring on the next NSEPSF on 17th June 💖

Saw this in my memories from 12 years ago when was around! The first qualification on my journey to becoming a fully trained & qualified therapeutic counsellor 💖
Then this week I hosted my very first which was also a huge success!
Must be something about this week 🥳
Happy everyone!

Today marks 9 years since the Manchester Arena attack. We remember those who lost their lives and continue to offer our support to their families, the survivors, and all who were affected.

Help and support is available for anyone who needs it on this difficult day, and on any day. Please see the comments section for more information.

So today was my first forum and I am so proud of myself and how far I've come since entering the world of social enterprise over 10 years ago!
Thanks to everyone that came and made it so special 🙏🤩 you are all amazing and making a difference with a passion!
