Youth and Early Intervention Partnerships Officer, Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC) for Humberside

I've worked with Children and Young People for over 10 years now, many who are vulnerable and have faced diverse challenges throughout their lives. I volunteered at StreetGames in Newcastle during my University degree, I then lead groups of young people on the National Citizenship Service (NCS) programme before joining Humberside Fire and Rescue Service as a Youth Inclusion Officer. I have recently joined the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC) for Humberside as Youth and Early Intervention Partnerships Officer. Part of my role involves me overseeing and developing the work Not in Our Community (NIOC), a local campaign commissioned and overseen by the OPCC. In my free time, I love to watch and play football!
