I have particularly enjoyed making files for the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) for the hospice.”
“Everyone at the Sue Ryder has been so friendly and I get on well with everyone. My line manager has allowed me to learn at a pace that suits me best, I have found that this has helped me settle in well with everyone else and giving me more confidence.”
