Socially-engaged practice

As a Therapeutic Practitioner, I facilitate wellbeing-focused art sessions within local communities, creating spaces for playful self-expression, connection, and creativity. I’ve collaborated with organisations such as Ace Place, Chapter Arts, Mental Health Matters, Age Alive, Llandough Hospital, Hijinx, delivering sessions tailored to a range of interests and needs.
