Shereena has been working with Feeling Fab Foundation since 2013 in and around nursing her Mum through cancer. Elizabeth and Shereena first meet in 2012 when they both attended a Remembrance Day for Road Crash Victims in Orewa. There was an instant connection with what both ladies had been thru losing a loved one – Shereena’s eldest daughter was lost in 2011 in a car accident. Elizabeth and Shereena have been firm friends ever since meeting at the Remembrance Day – Elizabeth shared not only her personal story but of how she wanted to make a change and support others like them going through grief and trauma, and both felt that they have something to offer in love, support and understanding of this and so when Elizabeth started Feeling Fab Foundation Wellness Day’s, Shereena came along as a Qualified Nail Technician of 22 years. Shereena joined the team and worked it around her three young teen children, nursing her mum until her passing, helping when able transporting animals and doing charity work with several groups. Shereena also helps with other entities and has held many positions; Secretary, President, Vice President, Funding Co-ordinator, Committee member, Examiner, coaching at Pony Club not only at a grassroots level but also higher up at District and Area Level as well as running her own business, along with supporting other businesses with website’s, digital media etc. Along with this, she has her own horses, dogs, cats, goat and chickens. Shereena also uses her animals for therapy with youths at risk as she is also a specialist caregiver. She says the animals are amazing and so healing. Shereena brings one of her dogs Eleshia along to the Feeling Fab Wellness Days as support for the people who attend. She is a very special dog and picks up on what’s needed, sometimes it’s just to let people pat her and other times it’s to let them hug her – a few have gotten a surprise as Eleshia hugs like a human with both arms and paws wrapped around you. But Shereena’s heart has always been to help Elizabeth and so the time is now right with her own children being adults and with being a specialist caregiver to youths at risk helping and supporting the Feeling Fab Foundation team is something she has time to do. Shereena loves working with the team at Feeling Fab Foundation, she says it’s wonderful to know we all have each other for support and that we all have so much to give at the Wellness Days and are able to support and help others in their time of need – we all build each other up and support those that need it. Shereena hopes to be able to support Elizabeth and the team for many years to come and to keep building the dream that Elizabeth has of doing this nationally in other areas of New Zealand.
