I am the Community Link Worker (CLW) for Clackmannan, Dollar and The Whins GP surgeries. CLWs are part of the primary care team within a GP surgery, and my role is to listen to people’s stories, and work with them to find solutions for any non-medical personal, social, emotional and financial issues which may be affecting them. I help to connect them to other services and resources in their community to support their health and wellbeing in the long term.

Outside of CTSI, I volunteer at Alva Development Trust, and I’m working with the recently created Adult Autism Peer Support Group Au Forth Valley. I enjoy watching history documentaries and reading about interior design and architecture, usually with my 15-year-old tortoiseshell cat Lizzie by my side.
