Hi there, I’m Linda, Project Lead for the Medway Project in Kent. I feel so honoured to be part of the Emerge family, supporting young people going through tough emotional times, helping them to feel heard and encouraging them to find hope.
I am married to an exceptionally kind man called Pete and am a proud Mum of two adult children and a very cheeky cocker spaniel who loves long walks, belly rubs and socks!
Linda has been supporting young people with their mental health since 2008, as an Emotional Wellbeing Practitioner within a SEN school, where she mainly specialised in CBT.

Hi I’m Jo, Youth Support Worker for the Medway Project.
I feel so privileged being part of a charity like Emerge that brings hope to young people. It is something I am passionate about. I am a qualified youth worker and have been working with young people in education and the community for the last 17 years, with a focus on mentoring and mental health. I am involved in my local church and in charity work both in the UK and abroad.
My other passions in life include my two wonderful children and our crazy cocker spaniel Hetty. We love going on new adventures together in the great outdoors-but not before a good coffee!! Jo has a BA honors in Youth and Community Work with Applied Theology and a NVQ level 5 in mentoring young people. She is also a JNC qualified youth worker.
