Hello,
My name is Elizabeth some people call me Beth. I have been a carer for 15 years. Also, I had the privilege of caring for my elderly in laws who were in their 90s. I loved hearing about their childhood memories and their WWII love story.
I have a psychology degree from Aberystwyth University . Through my psychology studies, I have taken courses in health psychology which enabled me to have a good understanding of individual differences, hidden disabilities, and how ageing affects us all.
Lastly, I am a volunteer at Age UK . Through my volunteering training , Age UK keeps me well informed with the Care Act 2014 and safe guarding policies such as:
> Ensuring Confidentiality
