Suzanne James
NHS Talking Therapies Employment Advisor

From a young age I was lucky to have many holidays on the Isle of Wight with my parents. I made the decision to move here and arrived in January 2021 to start a new chapter in my life. I am enjoying exploring the beaches around the island and collecting shells to draw and paint. My hobbies include growing herbs to make herbal teas, cooking/baking with experimental ingredients and yoga.
