I am the founder and owner of click the button. I have worked in HR and L&D for over 20 years and helped develop talent programs; for big Corporates and SMEs. My whole career has been coaching and mentoring colleagues of all levels on situational leadership, change management and employee personal development. Recruitment is challenging and expensive.

I faced many union representatives and challenges, but all were resolved professionally, in line with policies and procedures, and efficiently. During the pandemic, many people were struggling, so I started to help small businesses and individuals looking for guidance and support. I didn't know them, they just reached out via LinkedIn and Facebook, and I was able to help. Click the button was born. I deliver results, add value and motivate when morale and belief are low.

A brilliant day (yesterday) delivering a 30-minute session to the work coaches across all the Combined UCS Colleges, a real day of sharing best practice and working together.

My session focused on employer engagement: who to approach, how to build those relationships, and (crucially) what so often goes wrong on both sides.

The honest truth?

Placements and opportunities break down when expectations aren’t clear, for the student and the employer.

Students can feel out of their depth, employers can feel let down, and everyone walks away frustrated.

The fix isn’t complicated, but it takes intention:

•⁠ ⁠Set clear expectations from day one, for both parties
•⁠ ⁠Support the student to understand what “good” looks like in a workplace
•⁠ ⁠Support the employer to understand the young person in front of them
•⁠ ⁠Check in, don’t just check out

When we get that groundwork right, placements stop being a gamble and start being a genuine stepping stone.

Huge thank you to Karen Traves for the invite, always a pleasure to work alongside such a committed team!

Off to watch the football. Come on England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚽

What a genuinely collaborative morning at the Neighbourhood Cradle to Career event with Castle School and Richard Huish College.

We talked about how we can better support families and young people, and some of the realities are scary ... Some schools are facing 0% attendance in certain cohorts. That has to be a wake-up call for all of us. What can we do to engage and support as a community.

The highlight for me was meeting Year 7 students from Castle School and first-year students from Richard Huish, and simply asking them: what is it like to be a young person in Taunton?

Here’s what they told us:

Transport is still the biggest barrier. Some are spending £20 a week just to get to college. Others face a 4-hour round trip for a single 1-hour lesson. Ashley Fox MP for Bridgwater — could we look at free bus passes for under-18s across Somerset? It would unlock so much opportunity for young people who are currently priced out of education and employment…. ?

Safety. Some young people told us they don’t feel safe in their own community. We need to listen to that.

Accessible, free activities. They want more clubs in open spaces and parks , places they can actually get to and afford.

On the social media ban ,it was largely welcomed, as long as they can still call home and stay in contact with family when they need to.

Thank you Robert Dakin for the invitation, great to see you again Paul Smith, and I’m looking forward to continuing the conversation Keri Parr.

It was a real privilege to be interviewed by Grace Stevens for her “how to become a“ podcast and as part of WEX Week with Rob Morrish and the team to share my journey, both as an author and through the many stages of my career to a room of year 10 students.

One message I’m always keen to share is this: careers are not meant to be straight lines. They are built through experiences, challenges, and yes, sometimes the “wrong” jobs that teach us exactly what we need to learn.

As Grace highlighted, many people will have 10–15 roles across their working life. That is not failure — that is growth.

Every step shapes your direction. Always say yes to opportunities you never know where they will lead.

Keep going, stay curious, and back your ability.

Ability, not barriers.

Last April, my family hid 100 small ducks around our house.

For over a year, duck number 1 was missing. I searched everywhere. It genuinely started to bother me. I even questioned how thoroughly I was cleaning my own home. Surely I should have found it by now?

Fast forward to my husband's 50th birthday and there it was. Duck number 1, proudly presented on his cake. Mystery solved.

This morning, my son said, "I want to put all my ducks in a row." And there they were, lined up perfectly, organised and complete.

It made me think...

Do we ever really get all our ducks in a row?

In HR, in careers and in life, the answer is no. There's always uncertainty. Right now, many are navigating change, pressure and a lack of control, especially with shifting employment landscapes.

But here's the thing. You don't need perfect order to move forward.

Focus on what you can control. Show up. Do your best.

The missing "duck number 1" will turn up when you least expect it.

Happy Monday!!

Ability, not barriers.

Have a great week!

A fantastic day at the Wellington Community Hub.

A big thank you to Laura Batcha for hosting such a well-attended and impactful session. We were able to see and support 97 individuals, all looking to take their next steps in employment, training, or personal development.

It was great to have Amanda Whitlock and the team representing the Community Employment Hubs, alongside Ethan Mills, Marie Howard, Skill Up Somerset , and Naomi Johnson from Connect to Work.

Days like this really show the strength of partnership working and the value of bringing services directly into the community.

No time for videos today, we were too busy having great conversations and supporting people with real opportunities.

We will be back in Wellington on Tuesday 14th from 17th at the pop-up shop across from the Town Council. More details to follow soon.

Today I delivered a CV workshop at Sedgemoor Manor School, and what a fantastic group of students to work with. The level of engagement was brilliant throughout.

As always, one of the biggest challenges is helping people recognise and articulate what they are good at.

With the right support, though, we were able to uncover and capture some really strong skills that will form the foundation of their CVs.

With a busy week ahead, full of work experience and training, I am looking forward to continuing this journey, helping students build adaptable foundation CVs that can be tailored for jobs, placements, or college applications.

Thank you for the opportunity, Sarah. It was a real pleasure, and I hope the students found the session valuable.

This training session marks 100 people supported so far!

More jobs secured yesterday, training enrolled on, and introductions made -
