Rhiannon Rees-Jones, Apprentice of the Year
Rhiannon Rees-Jones, 39, is celebrating after beating 41 other apprentices to win Apprentice of the Year 2020 at Northamptonshire Health and Care Partnership (NHCP).
        Rhiannon, who has Asperger’s syndrome, works as an administrative assistant in Northamptonshire Adult Social Services. She is also carrying out an apprenticeship in Level 3 Business Administration, which is giving her a perfect platform to progress her career.
        She says: “As someone with Asperger’s, life can be pretty challenging, but I no longer see it as a barrier. I have achieved things I never thought I would thanks to the support of my friends, family and colleagues. Without this strong network of individuals, I don’t think I would have the courage to go on this journey and reach this milestone.
        “I would like to encourage anyone on the autism spectrum to keep developing themselves and try not to let it hold them back. I think people should make the most out of life and the opportunities that may arise, just like I have.”
        Rhiannon is pictured receiving her award with Martin Cox and Cllr Matthew Golby of Northamptonshire County Council.
        NHCP is part of a recruitment campaign called Best of Both Worlds, which seeks to hire apprentices in Northamptonshire. Click here to visit.
