My name is Travona and I want to have a career as a support worker because I love caring for others. I am passionate about helping others and bringing a smile to someone's face.
I have a wonderful 3-year-old son. What makes me happy is being able to provide a great life for my son and being able to brighten up someone else's day.
The biggest challenge I have faced is losing my dad during the pandemic. I was very close to him. I have also struggled a bit with my mental health as a result of being temporarily homeless last year. Now I am feeling better and cannot wait to return to work.
In two years time, I see myself going to university to study a degree in health and social care and also working as a healthcare assistant. I feel very happy and emotional to know there are people out there reading my story and wanting to support me on my life journey.
