Meet our new student Counsellor – James Powsey

What made you get involved as a counsellor at the carers centre?

They were recommended by a friend who had been volunteering with them. Having had experience as a carer myself I decided to apply. They have been a great fit for me and it is an inclusive, friendly and supportive environment.

Random fact/something about you?

I have quite a varied previous career. I have been involved in various music & arts events and ran a jazz club. I’ve also worked in health and fitness. 

Something you do to support your wellbeing?

I practice yoga regularly, go to the gym and like finish it all with a sauna and cold dip!

I also couldn’t be without my dog who I like to get out with for long walks.
