My participatory arts practice has been shaped by my passion for social and environmental justice through arts and culture. I devise and deliver arts, heritage and environmental creative programmes, making space for developing conversation, collaboration and the imagination: working with schools, new communities, marginalised groups, museums, cultural venues, conservation groups and local government. Through exploring, nurturing and sharing creativity, culture, stories and heritage, my practice celebrates the wonder on our doorsteps and empowers long term, positive change through developing a sense of place, identity, relationships, vision, skills and a longing for something better.
