I have always had a love for natural surroundings and being outside. I completed a permaculture design course in Devon nearly 30 years ago and have gone on to work in composting, organic vegetable growing, willow working and wreath making.I love to get creative with nature and have a broad experience in a variety of garden settings and situations.I have an RHS level 2 in Horticulture and a qualification in Horticultural Therapy with Thrive.More recently I have been a prison befriender through letter writing and visits and worked in a garden at a homeless shelter. I have also just completed a course in Restorative Justice.I met Jo at at the Perrie Lectures and have become involved with Horticultural Therapy in prison with Greener Growth. I am really looking forward to further projects with the team.
