Written by our client...
"I am a determined and creative person who likes learning and trying new things. I like anything creative and love going out shopping. I also like eating out, going to the theatre, concerts, cinema, and exploring new places. If I'm relaxing, I like watching Strictly Come Dancing or a good romantic comedy, with pizza and good chats. I aim to get to the gym twice a week to use the exercise bike and try new equipment. I listen to all different types of music from rock covers to worship songs. At the weekend I go to church, I'm part of a student group, and the Uni Christian Union. I'm also doing a directors' course and am a young advisor at a local theatre."
