New Staff
On Tuesday 3rd of January, four brand new staff joined our existing team. We are happy to announce that Daniel Howell, Emma Sharp and Colleen Lally have joined our team as Community Co-ordinators and Janine Crowdy has joined us to help alongside the Veteran’s Project as a Veterans Administrator. This week, let us introduce you to our new Veterans Administrator, Janine Crowdy..
Janine completed 27 years of service in the Royal Corps of Signals deploying on multiple operational tours including Afghanistan, Iraq, Bosnia and Northern Ireland. Janine was introduced to SMART Veterans whilst serving and completed the facilitator training allowing her to chair the online meetings in an evening and weekend.
After her retirement from the British Army Janine was keen to give something back to the veteran community as she is extremely passionate about passing on the tools that SMART Recovery uses. She is thrilled to have been offered a position as part of the team and looks forward to helping veterans find recovery.
