I joined Voices in Exile in July 2022 and prior to this I worked at The Youth Employment Hub supporting vulnerable young adults aged 16-25 years old. I have four years’ experience of managing my own caseload through my roles as a Generalist Advice Caseworker, Youth Employability Hub Work Coach and Case Manager. I am determined to tackle isolation towards the wellbeing of migrants as well as prejudices set out in the ‘hostile environment’. Supporting those with lived experience going through the asylum process, I am keen to empower others and advocate to ensure individual needs are heard.
Since working with people with no recourse to public funds, I have developed a passion for promoting the rights of people seeking asylum as well as refugees and vulnerable migrants in the UK. I enjoy raising awareness of the holistic casework we provide at Voices, collaborating with partner charities in the city. Upholding an ethos that promotes dignity, safety and justice, my style of casework is to motivate and provide others with as much choice and autonomy as possible.
