I found it particularly useful during this placement learning about the operations of a large-scale film festival. I was responsible for data capture and feedback to collate information used to inform future programmes. I had the opportunity to network with my organisation’s publics and delegates. In such a fast-paced environment I was able to hone my practical problem-solving skills in dealing with the everyday needs of our delegates and was able to promote events using social media platforms including Facebook and Twitter.

I was responsible for reputation management of both the business and of our clients. I aided those once deemed ‘undesirables’ in building happy and purposeful lives. My role also included reaching out to external agencies to request donations and charity co-ordination. I offered face to face and one to one support to our clients. More generally I dealt with housing and benefit related issues and signposting our clients to other relevant services whom could offer help.

My primary role during this post was in developing and facilitating groups for our clients which promote recovery and abstinence. I was also able to offer one to one support both on a face to face and telephone basis, including out of hours telephone service. We also worked with local housing groups and services to provide community outreach programmes which assisted in boosting the reputation of our organisation.

As a performer for Fallen Angels Dance Theatre, under the branch of Risen, I was able to choreograph and perform pieces which promote the message of recovery from addiction through the medium of contemporary dance. Whilst working with Risen I also took part in workshops which helped me to develop on both a performance and personal level. During some of our shows I was tasked with public speaking and would deliver speeches to students and other groups. During this time, we played several venues including Warrington’s Parr Hall and Liverpool’s the Brink. Tour dates included Westminster Recovery Festival whereby we performed for Russell Brand and Mitch Winehouse.

During this post I was tasked with face to face customer service. I learned strategies in creating a positive image, both of self and of organisation and rapport building. This has stood me in good stead. I was also involved in cash handling, which taught me much about trust and responsibility. In fashion retail the environment is fast paced, targets must always be met, and I was responsible for maintaining an impeccable appearance. I also learnt the true value of timeliness, job rotation and prioritisation.
