I wanted to put my Volunteer Work with Young People into practice academically, leading on to a new career as a qualified Youth Worker. Part of the reason I chose the course at the University of South Wales is that there is a high proportion of French speaking immigrants and refugees in the area, this meant that I am able to link my Undergraduate degree from Sheffield with my passion for working with Young People and in the local community.

Assistant Director - Active Training and Education: June 2017 - Present.
Student Engagement Coordinator, Leeds University Union: September 2015 - June 2017.
Societies and Activities Assistant (Graduate Intern), Sheffield Hallam Students' Union: August 2014 - September 2015.

I wish to get a job in the Youth Offending Service after I have completed my Masters qualification. After gaining more practical work experience of Youth Work I would like to consider undertaking a PHD in this area.
