I create, plan, facilitate and deliver Creative Enrichment Workshops for ALL.
I believe creativity is a powerful tool for healing, self-expression, and empowerment. Through art, storytelling, and creative exploration, I provide safe and supportive spaces where individuals can reclaim their voices, process emotions, and build resilience. Creativity transcends language and background, fostering connection, confidence, and a sense of belonging. It is a catalyst for exploration & a transformative force that enriches lives and nurtures well-being. Equality, Diversity & Inclusion are at the heart of my work.
I am a qualified Holistic Art Therapist and an Artist with 20 years of experience in the arts & facilitation. I have a 1st class honors BA Fine Art degree, a Master's in Research & have Qualified Teacher & Learning Status.
My work is rooted in:
UNICEF’s Core Values: Protecting children's rights, promoting equality, fostering well-being, and ensuring access to education.
