Hello! My name is Jo. My passion is supporting mums on their parenting journey. I set up Carlisle Sling Library in 2015 so that I could help families learn about the fabulous benefits you can get from carrying your baby close. In 2021 I started my Master’s Degree in person centred Counselling and Psychotherapy and began volunteering for Together We. I loved being part of the organisation and since April 2022 I have also been working as a Maternal Social Link worker for our very exciting new maternal metal health project. I work with mums in various ways to help them find support within the community.

Outside of work/Uni I love spending time with my partner and our 3 children. In my spare time I enjoy yoga, reading, making and decorating cakes, sewing and crochet.
