Sarah McMillan, 10k for Men Development Worker
Sarah McMillan has been working for Men’s Health Forum Scotland since the beginning of March 2005. Her job title is 10k for Men Project Development Worker and she is responsible for organising the MHFS 10k for Men which takes place on father's day every year.
Sarah's background is varied – at Art College she specialised in large scale metalwork and set up in business back in Northern Ireland as a designer/maker. After a few years of this, Sarah no longer was happy being a starving artist so decided to work full time and keep the design work for evenings and weekends. She worked as a sales administrator in a car showroom for 18 months, which cemented in her the need to work for an organisation that contributed positively to the world – so when she and her boyfriend decided to move to Glasgow last year, she looked to working in the Voluntary sector. After spending a short stint working as an administrator for the Simon Community Street Team, she applied for an Information and Administration role with MHFS and was thrilled to be offered the post. From here she progressed to work as the Information and Network Development Worker post, before successfully applying for her current role as 10k for Men Project Development Worker. Since starting in this post, Sarah has started jogging – (it’s only fair really!).
