Who's Listening

Hi, I’m Jane, I am team leader for the YEP! project, supporting the fantastic team that we have whose passion and commitment to improving young people’s lives is phenomenal. I cover the whole of Cornwall, meeting as many of the young people that we work with as I possibly can. My background is in education and I love helping young people to explore the opportunities available, expand their horizons and find their futures. I have travelled a lot, lived in several different countries and this allows me to share my experiences with people and get them to think outside the box and realise their potential when they are making decisions about their career pathway. I am also a cycling coach, have a motorbike and I love the ocean, paddle boarding and swimming

‘Hi, I’m Catherine, and I cover Mid Cornwall for the YEP project. I’m passionate about guiding young people in education and careers, helping them take confident steps into the workplace. My goal is to empower them to believe in themselves and show them that their ambitions—both in life and career—are achievable, no matter the challenges they face. Together, we’ll navigate any barriers and find ways to make those goals a reality.

Before working with young people, I spent time working on boats and airplanes, but it’s in Cornwall where my heart feels most at home. Outside of work, I love spending time with my two cats, Monty and Simba, and I never miss an opportunity to enjoy a refreshing cold-water swim!’
