Current profile
Youth Voice
I am Project Manager for the National Theatre Speak Up Programme in North Devon, working with young people to create collaborative pieces that express the messages that matter most to them. This will culminate in a celebration at The Landmark Theatre in Ilfracombe in June.
Women’s Empowerment & Resilience
Through The 40 Project, now in its fifth year, I continue to provide sanitary kits to vulnerable women in Plymouth. This year I am also piloting a poetry and performance idea, where women with lived experience of homelessness or period poverty write poems that professional dancers lift from the page. We began this work with Trevi, sharing poems inside the sanitary kits so creativity could reach those still struggling.
Artistic Health & Creative Wellbeing
Working with Young Devon’s In Reach team, I am developing ways to embed creative practices into support for young people in crisis. By blending movement, reflection, and creativity, I aim to build resilience, independence, and amplify young voices, while strengthening the connection between wellbeing and artistic expression.
