I am Charlotte, I am 22 years olf and I am writing this as it is my passion to become a counsellor and help people through their own personal mental health journey. Mental health levels have never been so low due to how challenging Covid-19 has been on people, yet it feel as though sometimes it is so difficult to get the support, there just aren’t enough resources to support everyone. I want to be able to change that, to be able to qualify as a counsellor and begin working straight away and know every day that I am trying to help somebody. I have already completed my level two and three courses and worked hard to get a scholarship for my level four-course which I am currently undergoing. However, because I have already completed a degree prior to this I am not eligible to receive any funding for the teaching fees of £900. This is devasting to me, as I chose to study Business with Marketing at the age of 16 and completed my degree with a first-class honours, however, it is only limiting me from my actual dream. I was still young and figuring my way in life at 16 but yet most job roles require a qualification and experience, but yet you are only eligible for one educational decision. I do not regret my degree as it taught me so much, I just wish I was able to use the skills I know in a field that I am so driven to work in. I am trying everything I can possibly think of to be able to complete my education and follow my passion. Anything that anybody could do would be greatly appreciated and you can know that I will spend every day offering support to people who need it. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this
