Shauna joined us in February 2025 as a Youth Worker on the TRY team. With over five years of experience in social care, including work in residential and homeless services and as an employment advisor, she brings a wealth of experience and a deep commitment to supporting young people to reach their potential. In her own words:

“Adolescence is a critical stage where guidance, encouragement, and a safe environment can make a lasting difference. I’ve always been drawn to roles where I can build trust, listen without judgment, and support growth, whether that’s through mentoring, organising activities, or simply being a consistent presence. I believe in empowering young people to make positive choices, develop confidence, and find their path, and I find real meaning in being part of that journey with them.”

Shauna is from the Liberties and holds a BA (Hons) in Social Care from TUD. Outside of work, she loves staying active, travelling, doing yoga, playing football, and sea swimming, as well as spending quality time with family and friends.
