I am also working within Medrwn Môn on staff wellbeing and creating a programme of activities for staff to enjoy time together away from their desks.
We have a great team within Medrwn, all the staff are supportive of each other and there’s always a great atmosphere! Every day is different and there’s no time to sit still!

Awen Dodd
Local Asset Co-Ordinator
My name is Awen Dodd and I work as a Local Asset Coordinator covering the Aethwy and Seiriol Ward on Anglesey.
I started working in partnership with Medrwn Môn in 2012 as an Engagement Officer with Llais Ni Youth Council and moved on to work as a Local Asset Coordinator in 2019.
As part of our social prescribing project, I support individuals and families of all ages to access local activities, groups, resources and opportunities within their community to improve their overall wellbeing. A vital part of my role is to build relationships with the people I support by listening carefully to what matters to them and what motivates them. It’s important to me that the person, and their family where appropriate, becomes an equal partner in the planning of their care and support, ensuring it meets their needs, goals, and outcomes.
The best thing about my job is seeing the people I support gain confidence to do something they've always wanted to do, and being part of the process that made it happen. It can be stimulating and rewarding work, with a real sense of fulfilment.
Working and supporting community volunteers during the pandemic was a complete privilege and an experience I will never forget. It was amazing to witness the community spirit during such a difficult time.
