I was introduced to HOPE by some good friends and I was asked to become Father Christmas, a duty I have performed for 4 years now. I am CEO of an LGBT charity as well a director of a theatre CIC and trustee for Enfield voluntary action. I have been a youth worker working with vulnerable young people for nearly 25 years. Over the time I have spent working with HOPE, I have thoroughly enjoyed myself and can see the benefit it has on the children and families it supports.
