I have been working with communities for 20 years doing everything from schools’ projects to large scale festivals. I also work with artists and have taught at universities for the past 10 years. I’ve been living in Hackney for 27 years and from around 2014, I was part of a project called Everyday on Canalside, which took place in Hoxton and was sponsored by Metropolitan Housing. The work with the Clapham Park Creative Co-op is partly a development of this, using some of the same mechanisms, but also looking to share more skills and have conversations that are relevant to Clapham Park.
