My name is Despena and I love supporting people in gaining confidence and independence!
With a background in teaching and education, I entered the disability field in 2019, as I enjoy supporting people with their personal development. Having worked as a Local Area Coordinator and then as a Support Coordinator, I decided to move into support work, where I
could assist people in a more practical way with achieving their goals. It is my aim to assist people in developing their life skills, and to support them in achieving their goals, no matter how big or small these may be.
In my personal life, I enjoy cooking, taking care of my family and antique shopping.
