Celebrating Seven Incredible Years with Our Occupational Therapist, Sarah!

We’re thrilled to celebrate a very special milestone - Sarah, our amazing Occupational Therapist, is marking her seventh work anniversary at Herts Ability! To recognise the occasion, our CEO, Sean Lawrence, shared these kind words:
"Congrats on your seven successful years with Herts Ability, Sarah! Thanks for all you do for the charity and our clients - it means the world to us! Sarah’s commitment, skill and compassion have made a lasting difference to so many of our clients. We’re lucky to have her on the team, and we’re excited for the years ahead!"
Sarah’s Journey to Herts Ability
Sarah’s connection to Herts Ability began long before she officially joined us in 2017."I had known about Herts Ability and the services they offer since 2002 - while working as a Rehabilitation Assistant for the Neurological Rehabilitation Service," Sarah recalls."But it wasn’t until 2015 that I started referring to some of the neurological patients I was seeing for driving assessments."
After qualifying as an Occupational Therapist in 2008, Sarah built up a wealth of experience, including: conducting Blue Badge assessments, chair assessments, and home adaptations across Bedfordshire and Essex, working with various charities and organisations as an Independent OT, and advising and referring clients for driving reviews while working again with the Neurological Rehabilitation Service.
In 2017, Sarah officially joined Herts Ability, and she’s been an invaluable part of our Driving Centre team ever since."Since joining Herts Ability, I have thoroughly enjoyed being a member of the team; working to Driving Mobility standards," says Sarah.
"I look forward to meeting some of you at different courses and events in the near future - and thank you for making me feel welcome to those of you whom I have already met and worked with!"
