I’ve been working at Metropolitan Thames Valley for over 5 years. Although I’ve only been based at Clapham Park for two years, I’ve been involved in the area as part of my previous roles in MTVH and with other organisations. The community spirit here is boundless and plentiful. I absolutely feel a part of the community and a sense of responsibility to doing what best for it. The regeneration has been a long process that has left residents frustrated, which is difficult because we have to rebuild trust. What’s most rewarding is getting the work done and fulfilling a promise that’s been made to them.
