Just communicating with Angella Hanson via messaging about her struggling with #cancer, I have chosen this to be my next write up for obvious reasons. This was the year 2013 and lots began to change in my private/personal and public life during the beginning to the end of the year. This was the year which lead up to my son Valdin Legister deciding to make me one of the happiest mum on earth with his decision to get married to Naheel Julene Brown Legister. Remarkably, I had not meet the young lady before stepping foot in Jamaica on the 22nd December 2013 at Sangster’s International Airport.

My life up until 2013 was more like a roller coaster, as I was #diagnosed with arthrites in 2010. In 2012 I was on the diabetes borderline, before the pressures caused me to have #type2diabetes. By this time I learned how to cope with my Tom’s diabetes and going into hypos. But this was only to add pressures to my #ChronicAnxiety that I was diagnosed with in July 2006. I have to get the diagnosis from my GP at Landor Road Surgery because they would not accept that I have disabilities of #Parkinsons without a Medical Report. Since I did not have a diagnosis for Parkinson’s disease, although it’s in my DNA. I have to settle with what my GP decided. I need to go back and enhance my knowledge about the different take on models and deficits, starting with Eugenics.

I was doing the exam for the UNISON, sponsored Health & Social Care Level 2 certificate at the The Open University. Although I used to take #valium to help calm my nerves, I was averse to medications. So during studies, I learned about the early intervention strategies that I could apply using a holistic approach to managing and controlling my disabilities. At no stage did I ever chose to hide my disabilities or any progressive health conditions of mine. I chose to make my life an “#OpenBook” sharing my personal experiences with my stories to help others.

As can be verified from Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, Twitter, Flickr, YouTube, Tumblr, et al. I am a credible witness unlike the stories put out by LEYF Nurseries – #LEYF that I am #uncoorporative, #unprofessional, #rude, #intimidating, #confrontational, #aggressive and #lackingempathy as soon as I returned from burying my mother. The cull had already started, getting rid of the employees who help to build LEYF into the #brand that was a recongnisable across the globe. There were rumours and on the spot resignation of #KarenWalker Head of Children Services. It was another shock when #Dearbahala who was doing the job of interim lost out to #RashidIqbal.

From thence it was like the herd stampeding and staff was just getting out, including the manager of Luton Streeet #JulieWeise. The atmosphere at LEYF was one of everyone looking over their shoulder. #TinaGegoriou stepped down from area manager to manager and a new breed of #Leader_Mangament took over. But nothing prepared me for what happened to me when I returned from my son’s wedding. This was after spending one of the most bitter sweet 4 weeks of my life with my family. My stories are documented in cyberspace for anyone who wants to verify whether I am a credible witness.

That’s why I have my Fight4justice for the following: The Department for Work and Pensions – DWP, HMRC, Bates Wells Braithwaite, Voice: the union for education professionals, the Employment Tribunal, Advising London, Nursery World Magazine, Community Playthings UK, HCT Group, Winsome Duncan: Author, Artist & Book Confidence Coach, the Metropolitan Police Service, et al. As soon as I remember those of you individuals and organisations that join in to discriminate against me, you will be named.

As I reflect on the stage I am at in my life, let me give God thanks for His blessings. My Tom is slowing down, and I have had to be making decisions as I go along. I am touched when the little things I do like offering words of comfort to #AngellaHanson result in her sending me her appreciations. I am wishing I could do something to help her. But who knows after the Employment Appeals Tribunal, I might be able to help her publish her stories to a wider audience for a better outcome for her and her young children?

I will end by saying I have been #scammed by both male and female who I thought were in sympathy with my plight over the past 4+ years. That’s why I will not trust another person to listen to them, if they ask me for a favour. I am sorry the good will have to suffer fdor the bad. My focus now is primarily for my #husband. But I still have mind on a certain Mr Person to try and make connections, but that’s in the for later agenda.

I am chosing this as my first Facebook memories to write about today because for some reason, I will be able to tell a good story about my time working at LEYF Nurseries www.leyf.org.uk – #LEYF, Luton Street Community Nursery.  This is where I spent 4+ years of my working life of the 6 years I slaved at LEYF, working to secure my pension. As I learned from studies at the The Open University, a photograph can tell a million words of a story. I was encouraged by my tutors at Lambeth College to go to #university and take up #writing because of how I was able to use my experiences to help with my assignments.

Only last week, I meet one of my former peers who we studied together at LC. Joy Grant was one of my peers who insisted that I went to university because of the way I was able to break down the subjects into bite size (#understable) chunks and explain to them what the tutors expected of us. We were employed at William Wilberforce Lambeth Walk Day Nursery. I was recommended by one of my tutors and at one stage there were 3 of us, Anna, Joyce and Mervelee from college working there. My CV is on social media platforms, verifying my credetials.

This was the workplace where I meet #JoelleLax, who would go on to play major roles in my life later. Joy left to have her #baby, I left after a while and I am not too verse about more, fromthat period of my life. But can always go back in my memories when I am over this horrible 4 years to find some of the pleasant memories I experienced in my first job as qualified #NurseryNurse. I have some photographs on my wall as well as stuff stash away because I am a hoarder. Gaining a #qualification and graduating with #StudentofYear Awards meant the world to me for varying reasons. Joy told me that she returned to live in Nottingham, United Kingdom, about 8 years ago. She was visiting London and going back the day after I had seen her.

Yesterday I was in the garden, pottering around and couldn’t help making a video about my experiences. Of course I had to reflect on my contributions to the different workplaces over the years. However my most valuable contributions were made at Luton Street where I was transfered to from Fitzrovia Community Nursery. This was where I started with Westminster Children Society now LEYF on the 1st September 2009. Although I was bullied and harassed by #MariaGoncalves and #MariaFreeman, this was when Joelle Lax spoke up about my professionalism when we were colleagues that saved me from not been left out in the wilderness and out of employment in my chosen career for good.

But I am thankful I was transferred to Luton Street where my #empowerment began, thanks to the team at Luton Street. The manager #JulieWeise saw my potentials and I was given free reigns to help develop Luton Street into one of the leading settings at LEYF. But believe me because I am a credible witness, when I went to Luton Street not much was going on. There were more #AgencyStaff than LEYF staff. Sometimes I find myself doing the jobs of 3 staff. But for me this was like the challenge I needed to show my knowledge and expertise from been a #BasicSchoolTeacher from Jamaica. And also the studies I done at Lambeth College and the Open University www.open.ac.uk/ceremonies.

Working collaboratively in the team, Luton Street became a model for the other settings. As can be witnessed from the 6 lines reference by Senior HR Dilys Epton, flagging safeguarding, I covered in other setting apart from those I worked in. By 2011, Luton Street was considered the hub where best inclusive practices was happening. I got published in the Nursery World Magazine for reaping the potatoes we planted in celebrating St Patrick’s Day 6-9 September 2011. By Wednesday 5/9/2011, I was on Sky News covering the “Cost of Childcare”. I used the opportunity to plug my #HomemadeBooks.

The CEO #JuneOSullivan chose one of my books to be upgraded into a teaching and learning tool. The book chosen is/was  #Consultations. If in doubt check the LinkedIn Forum that I was a member of until I was excluded when LEYF got others to discriminate against me. #LizRobers editor of the Nursery World Magazine eventually showed her hand when she emailed me. She didn’t just stopped there, she got 2 young white men to stalk me at the #NurseryWorldShow2017. And acted like I owed her an apology at the #NurseryWorldShow2018.

I represented LEYF at trainings, Community Playthings UK in 2011. Then later on work in partnership in communities of practice until October 2016. Then they too joined with LEYF to discriminate against me. I attended consultations, at Mark Allen Group and at other functions. However I was not considered good enough for the post of Lead Early Years Practitioner in November 2012. Even when I was the only staff shortlisted for interview. After facing another #meltdown after building up my hopes and getting shunned again, I chose a different direction for the rest of my life. I decided to continue working for my #Pension.

By this time I was officially the EYFS coordinator and SENCO in status and not only when there was no one else to fit in. Taking on the role of Multigenerational Working Approach Facilitator as I consider myself to be an expert authority on subjects from cradle to the grave. I am/is/was more of a background person because of my hidden disabilities. I continued promoting and implementing best inclusive practice working in collaboration with the best team of colleagues I am/was privileged to work with throughout my working life, here in the UK or Jamaica.

Luckily I chose to make my life an Open Book, when I decided to stop hiding from my past at King’s College Hospital. Because what UNISON, London Borough of Southwark SEND Section, the Local Educational Authority, et al done to me, left me experiencing mental health conditions. Dealing with the pressures of the Employment tribunals whilst working full time is no mean feat. That’s why I am in Dr Maria Hudson Research Paper for the Policy Studies Institute. This was recommended to Acas. The unprofessionalism of Capsticks, Wimbledon left me dreading dealing with solicitors like Bates Wells Braithwaite. And the situation with the union left me weary of Voice: the union for education professionals.

Since I have been documenting my stories to help others from I joined social media on the invitation of LEYF Nurseries CEO in 2011. I am so lucky to have my defensive practice to counteract the way how I have been made a victim. Therefore I can be found at Google and the rest is history. I refuse to accept the #radicalisation at https://www.facebook.com/public/Mervelee-Myers. This started from November 2016 despite me having my Fight4justice campaign. Facebook allowed LEYF access to my account for them to discriminate against me from 18th September 2015.

Then in August 2017 after the reserve judgement was posted online, www.bwbllp.comwww.bwbllp.com got Facebook and Twitter Legal Teams to contact me. Facebook continued with the discrimination locking me out of my account and they don’t realise that I am operating within the framework of the Rules of Law. The Employment Tribunal Law is not fit for purpose. The same way how I informed #JudgeFreer, #MsFennel and #MrDixon that the contract I signed was not updated in line with the Equality Act, 2010.

I don’t trust Facebook, so I copy everhting before posting. They have away of deleting my work.
