and I was her referee and I met with her social worker

過去簡單式

and she talked me through sort of the assessment

I think you'd make a really good social worker

I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life

and I believe in fighting for the underdog

I believe in helping people who are vulnerable

and it made complete sense so I applied for the degree

and I think I learned that from a very young age

they were foster carers right from the age of two

and watched the kind of support that my parents

and that carried on right up until the age of about 16

and then at that point I started my own journey

of volunteering and working with children and families

so social work just for me seemed like the next step

which is something that felt important for me

and a desire to help people and from that

when I left uni with my art degree I went to

and I actually used the art degree to be fair

setting up an art therapy group and from there

until it got to the situation where I felt that

I needed to have an academic qualification

and also society or rather government was saying that

you had to have this academic qualification

since I had such a good experience here before

which I did and I haven't regretted that at all
