It’s a special time of year and so, to celebrate it, I wanted to do something special on I’m NOT Disordered for Christmas. I have decided to bring back the Christmassy Q&A I put together last year with the questions being from a YouTube video and have posed them to many different people from all of the country and doing all sorts of jobs, in all sorts of roles, living all kinds of lives!
So let’s kick off Day Five of 12 Days of Christmas with I'm NOT Disordered with the answers of Vicky McNally, Corporate Governance Director from private healthcare organisation Cygnet Healthcare
