Mottie tells us a bit about her time working for the National Health Service (NHS) and how she stumbled into the job but at her interview realised it was meant to be. Mottie talks about some of the initiatives she started at the NHS including a coaching and mentoring scheme designed to help BME staff reach the summit of the snow peaked mountain at the NHS. Mottie's background volunteering at church and youth clubs gave her the passion to help others through mentoring.
