Revolution Fun day was FUN!!!
Kids, Carers and staff gathered at Revolution to enjoy the facilities and connect with each other. Pizza was gobbled down for lunch, and everyone went home tired but happy as the photos show. If you haven’t been yet- think about coming to the next day.

Cloe Badger: 
Caseworker - Fostering & Permanency
Favourite Food: I enjoy trying new foods, but at the moment nothing beats a good bowl of ramen to warm me up on these cold winter days.
To relax, I: go to the beach for a swim or watch a good TV series.
Hobbies: I enjoy going to the gym, travelling whenever I can, and spending quality time with my nephews.
Currently listening to: I usually enjoy listening to a wide range of podcasts, but at the moment, I have had G Flip's album on repeat.
Best thing about my job: Although I have only just started in this role, the best part so far has been getting to know the young people and carers and beginning to build meaningful connections with them.
