Wey Ofenor
Engagement Coordinator
What am I responsible for?
I am responsible for providing administrative, logistical and coordination support for the Trust’s engagement activities/projects, ensuring it runs effectively and efficiently. I work closely with the connectors, marketing team and circle members to encourage inclusion for people with disability and mental health challenges across Gloucestershire.
What brings me here?
I have experience in customer service, administration, health and social care, and commissioning. My professional and academic (public health) background has helped me to hone the skills and abilities that feed my passion for offering care and support to the public. Working both internally and externally to enhance the health and wellness of individuals with disabilities and mental health challenges is something I am looking forward to.
What am I working on?
I am currently organising and planning activities, events, and communications for our Membership Scheme, working alongside the Connectors to help reach new members. I also support with coordinating the Trust’s projects involving Experts by Experience.
What do I enjoy spending time doing for my own wellbeing?
Exercise, dancing, and cooking are all therapeutic for me. Whether we talk on the phone or in person, I appreciate spending time with my family. Finally, I am a creative and visual person who enjoys exchanging ideas and finding innovative solutions to difficulties, which I find to be quite soothing.
