Hey Hey… 

The names Bri 🙂

Nice to meet you! I’m one of the Buddies team.

I was born in Uganda in 1987, quite an interesting place if you google it. 

A lot of Ugandans: we were kind-of raised in a very typical British way, (and we have very British names (Ive got Brothers called Paidreic and Nigel)). I actually sound quite posh, James (The Buddy) reckons I could be the next James-Bond.

Speaking of my family, some of them are very interesting, with a Doctor and a politician in there. Ive got plenty  of stories about my upbringing and the Ugandan culture.

It was tough at times- especially when I came to UK and I spent time in the care system, which is what inspired me to find work supporting young people in difficult or challenging situations. 

Its what I enjoy about the Buddies team, and being a buddy.

Im very patient, very calm – and I enjoy listening and being able to connect and find ways of supporting people. 

Particularly with pursuing interests, getting out and about.

I’m a Capricorn and I make a really good fish and rice dish – you only need to ask and I’ll teach you the recipe – might even show you how to make it.

I’m always thinking and looking at ways to improve and advise people around lifestyle and making healthy choices. Im a sensible kind-of guy, and I like to research things properly, on the internet, but mostly reading books, Ive usually got one in hand. As a result I’ve usually got pretty good advice on most subjects.

Speaking of reading, Thanks for reading about me, I appreciate it 😉
