3 APRIL

A lovely Caribbean girl, Abi, asked me to help her with a question, as part of her course, on how to take account of environmental damage when conferences are organised. She wants eventually to go into event organising and this is a good way of getting there. I agreed to meet her in the morning but she didn’t show up. At lunchtime, since we were both working, we agreed to reschedule for 3 p.m. When she didn’t show up again I went looking for her and found her asleep in her room! We rescheduled and finally met in IT before they closed down at 8. Well, eventually she got through the course with a good mark and I hear she has been hired by some event organisers in London. Maybe if all else fails when I get out I will ask her for a job.

As it happens I spent the late afternoon with Lesley, who managed the Vision office in ESP (the link between the residents and the outside education and employment worlds), discussing employment issues and what options there were for women in general to prepare for work on the outside again. She thought that in my case and on account of my specialism there was no point in thinking of anything other than using my specialism to good effect, which was oddly reassuring in a way. We discussed teaching, too, and she gave me some brochures and further information.
