Capacity

While I do still experience some migraine symptoms they are becoming much more manageable. I have been out and about a bit more, and have been having a few more catch up coffee dates with others doing work centering disability. If you're interested in catching up or think there might be something you'd like to do together please reply, and let me know your availability.

Warmly, Alison
