Homeless Health Outreach Service Lead at GPN. After 15 years as a probation officer I decided to leave when prison life became a sentence in itself. Whilst taking some time out I discovered a job supporting chronically excluded adults in Peterborough which included the homeless. I then became the Rough Sleeper Outreach officer in the city and met Dr Beesley. Since then, my passion for advocating and supporting this group of people has just grown.
