Drew is the Social Justice Team Leader. He works with neurodivergent individuals to identify their barriers to work and provides intensive support focused on building confidence, managing disability and health concerns, and improving overall wellbeing and mental health. He shares the belief that “Neurodiversity is the future of innovation and progress.”
Psychology has always been a fascinating area of study for Drew. It has helped him better understand human behaviour, mental processes, and the ways people think, act, and feel.
Drew completed his BSc in Psychology at the University of Derby and his MSc in Organisational Psychology at the University of Birkbeck. Psychology has always been such a fascinating area of study for him. It helped him to understand our human behaviour, different mental processes and how we think, act and feel. Following University, Drew worked as an interventions facilitator in a medium secure hospital for the NHS. He delivered a range of different psychological interventions from CBT to anger management and helped offenders develop the skills and techniques to reintegrate successfully back into the community.
When Drew is coaching or assessing at his best, his approach is a bit like tuning a radio. At first, the signal can feel full of static, challenges, uncertainty, and mixed messages about what someone can achieve. But through careful listening, the right questions, and the right adjustments, the signal becomes clearer. What once sounded like noise starts to make sense, and people begin to hear their own direction and potential more clearly.
