Managing Study, Work and Travel

Study and work can bring independence and purpose. They can also bring different pressure, especially when you are managing tiredness, symptoms, treatment, and appointments. It is common to worry about keeping up, or about how much to share with other people about your health.  

Fitting work, study and travel in around your medical and health commitments is nothing to be embarrassed about.  Whilst it can be frustrating and energy zapping most young people are juggling commitments and balancing their available time to pursue their interests. 

The aim of this module is to help you to develop strategies, routines and supports so that you stay engaged in school, further study, work and explore opportunities to travel.  

• What goals do you have for your education and employment? 
• Are there specific areas of study or interests you would like to pursue? 
• Have you consider going on a holiday and are there places you would like to explore?
