Bio
Alison: I started my journey in life as a white working-class girl in a council estate in East London. I encountered an abusive parent who took away my childhood but taught me to fight. I then spent the next 8 years of my life in the care of the state, foster home, children's home, residential school, learning how to further fight. I use the term because I wasn't taught to use my skills to benefit my life I was purely using them to survive the life I was living.These skills stood served me well.
At 21 I took on a job as an Apprentice in the field of Youth and Community Services (I took this option because I did not have the education, the support or the resource to go to university) and by 45 I was Director of Children’s Services (there are only 152 of these positions across England) and by 47 I was the CEO of one of the 152 Local Councils in England. Leading a workforce to deliver quality services to meet residents' needs.
I retired from leading Public Services at 51 and now at 53, I’ve joined with a group of people who are all driven and passionate about changing the world, rebalancing the world through, unlocking human potential. Our venture is made possible through the tools of Web3 - consequently, I like many women, have been on a journey of discovery. I have learnt so much but what I want to share is my reflections on how Web3 tools give us a real chance to achieve our collective ambition.
