Descripción
Hi I'm Emma, I am a creative individual interested in so many things, it's difficult to do them all! I have lots of experience in a wide range of areas:
- At the moment I've been really interesting in learning about where our food comes from
- volunteering at a local organic vegetable farm on Friday mornings sometimes. as a community we built a polytunnel together and a pond
- Helping with lambing this April, and feeing and looking after cows and sheep
- At the moment working in a boys residential school for students with Special Educational needs and challenging behaviours
- I am converting a minibus into a living space. I am always pushing myself to learn new things so I have gained skills in woodwork, electricity, plumbing, design.
-BSc Honours degree in Psychology and Education, Aberystwyth University.
- Waitress work in various hotels and restaurants, such as five star hotel 'Chewton Glen'
- Level 2 Certificate in British Sign Language (Not American)
- I have done 8 workaways before, 2 in Wales, 3 in Germany, 2 in Belgium and 1 in France
- Some of these workaways involved farm animals and feeding them- sheep, pigs, chickens, turkeys, goats
- I worked for 3 and 1/2 years in a mainstream school in the city of Southampton for children aged between 7 - 11. My role was largely with a SEN (Special Education needs) student on a 1 -1 basis
- I have been on many school trips with children including residential trips to outdoor places, where we have learnt about nature and teamwork. I have normally had to take responsibility for a group of children on these trips
- I ran an after school club called 'Creative Club' which is an art based club
- I want to learn about other styles of education and what else is out there for educating children. I believe that children's education should be a journey of love and interest rather than 'box-ticking' and should be motivational for them
- I am quite a calm individual, very friendly and like to be useful
- I like riding my bike and running to keep healthy
-I like growing vegetables andi first did this when I was 9 years old, I've grown carrots, parsnips, swede, peas, spinach, sweetcorn, strawberries...
- I previously volunteered with a elderly care charity for about a year and a half and I was a 'befriender' where I visited a lonely elderly person once a week to provide companionship
I hope all of this gives you a positive impression of me as I feel I am a positive person and want to be engaged with projects and people. I care for people and the world as a whole.

Thank you for your stay, Emma! Good… read more
Thank you for being you.
This was the best start I could ever ask for on my first work away experience. A most wonderful home with loving people and animals. I don't think I will never forget Nina the goat, or the very very fluffy cat (sorry cat, didn't know your name!) or Doc and Lucy. Marleen is a lady who has a genuine love for meeting new people and… read more
