One beautiful dayMy name is Mojisola.
I left the hospital in 2016 and I was referred to Mosaic Clubhouse. I really love coming to Mosaic and my purpose was to get a job. I was assigned to a support worker named Maz. One beautiful day at reception (I worked at the Mosaic reception, for the Business & Admin unit and I was also doing other tasks), Maz called me and said he had a Transitional Employment Placement (TEP) for me as a Facility Assistant, at Handle Recruitment, Oxford Circus.
I worked there for a year, and it stimulated my well-being having somewhere to go when I wake up in the morning. Leaving that job for a change of environment was my biggest regret – they loved me there and said I should stay forever, and they gave me vouchers, lots of flowers and birthday cakes for my birthday. Working there helped me with my CV and to get references. I've had a few jobs since then and I am now working part time as a Carer. I've been doing this for more than a year, the longest I've been in a job. "I love working at Mosaic because there is never a boring moment, and it keeps me mentally well." I still come to Mosaic, I do all the Salesforce (database) tasks and attend to the phone calls at reception. I love working at Mosaic because there is never a boring moment, and it keeps me mentally well. I have received employment and education support and have been a member of the Employment and Education unit too, and I am grateful for the employability skills I have gained through my involvement with both units.
I like working as a Carer, it's local, it gives me peace of mind. As we say in Nigeria, I'm content, it is my last bus stop.
