Whilst I'm away on holiday, sunning it 8-)

[EmJay]

Hey Everybody,

just in case you hadn't heard already, I'm away for some sunshine

Whilst I am away, I have asked a couple of my colleagues to pop their heads round the door and see that you are all okay. I'm sure you will be

Everybody in our office is lovely and have so much to offer, I'm sure you'll have fun getting to know them You'll recognise any of them by their Roy Castle name tag, which appears alongside their names - just as it does with mine

To start with and introduce you to some of our team members, I have just met with Claire (Jarvo) and Helen (Helena84) who will pop on in a minute to say hello. Claire has been working for our charity since 2004, and Helen has been with us for 5 years now. Both Helen and Claire have worked as a Stop Smoking Advisor within our Roy Castle Fag Ends team. They are both lovely and lovely and I'm sure their personalities will shine through

Please, please, please remember to stay positive and don't forget that things will get easier. The longer you continue to say no, the easier it will become

I don't go until this coming Wednesday and will be back in the office on Tuesday 26th June I cannot wait!

However, I shall be thinking about you all and I absolutely know already that I'll be excited to get back and hear how you are all doing

Speak to you all in a little bit xx

Hiya

I've been following most of you over the last few weeks, and you're all doing brilliantly. Well done.

If there's anything I can help with please ask away and I will do my best! As Mel said I have been here a while now as a Stop Smoking Advisor and also as a Youth Project Worker - raising the awareness of the dangers of smoking and secondhand smoke and other tobacco related issues with young people.

I look forward to getting to know you.
