Writing Workshops
I believe writing is for everyone. I've created and led workshops for poets, unpaid carers, people living with early onset dementia, psychotherapists, and community groups.
Creative Health
I'm a non-executive director at The National Centre for Creative Health, with interests in Comms, CreaTech and the APPG. I have also worked across UK health with The Nudge Unit, the NHS, and The King's Fund, and served as an expert advisor for the Longitude Dementia Prize for Nesta.
Oxford Poetry Pharmacy & Walks
At local events and festivals I have offered poetry pharmacy sessions, which are one-to-one conversations that end with the prescription of a poem, and led literary walks of Oxford.
