I am a 51 year old mother of two adult children. I have worked as a Teaching Assistant for the last 13 years, specialising in working with children with special needs, and in particular those with autism. My eldest child, now aged 23 and living in Supported Living, has autism, so it is a condition that I am fully aware of and comfortable with.
My other child, a son aged 20, lives at home with me.
When not working, my passion is cooking and anything food related including TV programmes and collecting recipe books. I enjoy trips to the theatre (particularly to see musicals), and eating out.
