I would definitely say my confidence has grown during my years with United Response. I first got involved with United Response when I joined the media group in York a few years ago. There, I learnt about camera work, directing, and how to use Premier Pro. That’s where I became interested in editing videos.
After that, I got a part-time job with United Response. I usually work with the Practice Development Team, editing their learning lunch videos. Some of the videos are really fascinating.

My favourite thing about my job is it allows you to be creative and experiment. During the pandemic, we made a stop frame animation video for the “Stopping Over Medication of People with a Learning Disability, Autism or Both” campaign. This is one of the best projects I’ve worked on because of how much I learnt.

Alongside my job, I’m currently studying Game Design at University. United Response helped me with writing my personal statement. From there, they’ve been checking in on me to see how I’m finding University.

United Response are supportive, united and responsive. If there’s one thing United Response is very good at, it’s identifying what the person wants to do, and how they can do it in the best way possible.
