Worked at Northern Bootcamp since:

September 2017

Life pre-Northern Bootcamp: I worked in Greggs from 2007 till 2013 and made friends for life. I left there to carry on the family antique business. I would drive over to France and Belgium in a van, buy antique furniture and drive them back to England to sell them, delivering them all over the country. I loved this work but a reduction in demand led me to seek a different adventure, which led me to Northern Bootcamp and I couldn’t be happier.

Team role:

Cook

Perfect day off:

Going for a nice long walk with my partner, daughter, and two dogs. Having some me time in the kitchen thinking up something for dinner. Then cuddling up on the sofa with a Disney movie with a nice fire burning away.

Highlight of the job:

My favourite time on camp is on the last day when everyone is happy about their achievements. The excitement and energy is amazing and infectious.

Favourite quote:

In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun, find the fun, and snap the job a game!
