As a recent Psychology graduate and current support worker for adults with learning difficulties I have secured a Mental Health placement with SLV.Global in Bali this September, putting my degree, work experience and passion for helping individuals with mental health and learning difficulties to good use!

The placement will involve myself and a team running daily activity sessions in clinical settings in Bali’s psychiatric facilities, within schools for children with specific needs and within community outreach programs designed to keep elderly residents healthy. The placement will also involve the English for Development project, teaching English to the community in schools or vocational training.

I would REALLY appreciate any donations however small to help me fulfil my placement. Any donations will go towards; my placement fees (£1650)- this includes my local homestay accommodation for 4 nights a week for the duration of my placement.

Any donations after I reach my target amount will go towards; resources for activity sessions (such as arts and crafts), placement uniform (~£200), flights (~£500)and visas (£35).

I am so excited to begin this adventure and realise how treasurable this experience will be for myself and the future work I will do in the UK.

Thank you!
