About
Counsellor
I am 63 and not working at the moment as I have severe arthritis and struggle with mobility. This does not stop me being able to support and help others who are less fortunate than myself. By helping others I am actually helping myself therefore there is method in my volunteering.
I usually volunteer with Pearl whom I met when we both volunteered for St Pauls advice centre that used to be in Easton but has since moved. I learned about Pip applicaitons as did Pearl and we also learned about helpling with housing benefits and others forms.
