Jenny began working with nurtureuk in 2019 as a consultant trainer and soon after as the Programme Manager for the Violence Reduction Unit projects. Having spent 20 years as an English teacher and senior leader in Secondary and SEMH settings it became very clear that her passion was for working with those young people who were being left behind; the ones that many had given up on or thought too late to help. The social, emotional and mental health of young people has always been at the centre of her practice which is why nurtureuk and the violence reduction units were such a great fit.

In her ‘spare’ time she loves to bake, read, and veg out in front of a good box set but mainly it is all about spending time with her lovely family and ridiculous dogs.
