Hi there!

 

Welcome to Wild & Crafted!

 

My joy is to see people grow in joy and wellbeing through creativity and connection with nature. With training in Occupational Therapy, Art for Wellbeing, Counselling and Special Educational Needs education, I design inclusive workshops that adapt to all abilities, helping participants build confidence and discover the joy of making. For me, creativity is not about technical skill but about wellbeing—slowing down, connecting with nature, and finding resilience through the simple, restorative act of creating with our hands.​

​

I work with families, community groups, charities, businesses and creative people to provide workshops that boost health and wellbeing, foster a deeper connection to the world around us, bring joy and build closer and more successful communities.  I specialise in Gelli plate printing, collage and painted embroidery.  I run regular classes at Boom Studios in Bangor, and have also worked with Sostrene Greene, Ards & North Down Borough Council, the Simon Community, Linking Generations NI, Bloomfield Collegiate, Hawthorne House Care Home, Millisle Health and Wellbeing Group, Millisle Craft Group and the King's Trust.
