Hayley’s Story
“Access Wellbeing helped me to find a way forward to enter back into employment”
In 2024, Hayley was told by her asthma specialist that after 15 years of being too unstable in her breathing to work, she could return to work.
“I met with Roxie at Access Wellbeing in Boscombe for an appointment to find a way forward to enter back into employment,” Hayley explains. “My dream was to be a support worker.”
With support from Roxie, Hayley started an Essential Support Worker Skills course with BCHA Learn. “At the end of that month, I had my first job interview since 2001, and Roxie gave me lots of help and positive interview tips to take with me.
“I got a job as a full time support worker starting in January 2025. None of this would have been possible without the expertise and the amazing support of Roxie and all the other staff at Access Wellbeing.”
