Hello, my name is Andrew and I am a member and part time employee here at Swansea People First.
We have been extra busy over the past few months where I have been co-trainer on our 'Leadership Skills Course in Fforestfach Day Centre.
We have held 'Question Time' sessions with local Assembly Members in the run up to the General Election in May raising awareness of the issues and rights of my peers and helping them to make an informed choice of who to vote for.
They all listened to us very carefully and with the support of Swansea People First we got our points across to them.
You can see pictures from these sessions HERE with Dr Dai Lloyd AM (Plaid Cymru), Peter Black (Lib Dems), Andrew Davies (Labour) and Nick Bourne (Conservative)
I am also still working 3 hours a week in the People First office helping out Daniel the administrator and have now been doing it for 120 weeks!
I am loving the responsibility and opportunity to learn new things and be part of a working environment like anybody else.
We have all worked together to organise the Annual Health Fair at which I took part in the Fashion Show and manned our information stand giving out leaflets and resources to people.
It was a great day and I am proud to have been involved. I look forward to next year!
Andrew Evans
