Simon has many years experience in supporting people. He has worked for several local authorities around Greater Manchester where he gained a reputation for being able to work effectively in the most challenging environments.
More recently he has turned his attention to 3rd sector provision delivering various therapeutic arts based projects.
In his thirties, Simon returned to education, achieving a degree in media production. He has found many applications for these skills in social and community work, particularly as a vehicle to increase self-esteem and aspiration. He is also a semi-professional musician, providing the creativity to compliment his technical abilities.
As a director of Targeted Youth Engagement Services C.I.C., Simon had been delivering effective youth projects in Greater Manchester for the past 2 years.
