Vicky's Comment
Hello to you all. I'm Vicky Pomeroy, the new fieldworker for SF Nelson.
In the past I have worked as the Family/Whanau Advisor for Gateway Housing Trust and many of you will have met me in that role.
I would like to thank Gateway for their guidance, training, and encouragement over the last three years. This has enabled me to be successful in my application for this position.
I am loving the job. Boy no wonder Michael worked into the wee hours. I have had many a phone call when lights have been on after 8pm instructing that I go home, only for them to find out it was a committee meeting! I don't plan on filling Michaels shoes; he was one of a kind. I miss him, as I know you do too.
Please feel free to phone anytime or call in and meet me. I'm often out and about during the day, so making an appointment is advisable if you would like a longer chat and a good coffee.
