Farah and I have worked together for a number of years both in the UK and internationally. Her moving to Portugal for family reasons didn’t prevent a number of major joint projects taking place.

 

Key amongst the projects are:

 

• A review of mental health services for the Royal Marines Charity

• Acting as interim manager for a large learning disability charity

• Working on the development of services for people with learning disabilities and mental health issues in central and eastern Europe;

• Projects for the Department of Health on mental health and ethnicity

• Developing supported employment schemes for people with mental health issues

• And many more.

 

She brings to all her work – determination: she won’t take no for an answer; an array of training skills for engaging the more hard to reach users and some clients; charm: people usually want to oblige Farah if they can; and modesty.
