Things to do, things not to do
If you are interested in this placement you should start early as iti is hard to get all of your hours in and it is only 2 sessions a week, you could also have another placement along side this one to complete all of your hours.
The overall manager is Joy you can contact her through their website which is listed at the top of the page. The people you will most communitcate with are Ronny and Angela.
