Welcome

My career has spanned many roles; teacher, leader, mentor, community manager, trauma practitioner, nanny, doula, activist and consultant.

All of them centre on one core mission: to make the world a better place for children, girls and women.

I am the founder of The Joyful Activists, a global mental health community for activists, humanitarians and charity workers. We host wellbeing workshops, events and retreats, creating trauma-informed environments that promote healing and connection. We advocate for better mental health provision for our sector, and our vision is a world which prioritises the wellbeing of activists, so activists can continue prioritising the wellbeing of the world.

I convene a UK-wide professionals network called the Girls' Rights Collective UK, connecting organisations and academics working in girls' rights across the UK as part of my role at global children's charity Plan International UK. I am an official UN Women UK delegate at the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women, the largest global conference on gender equality held in New York.  

I offer leadership consultancy for women's rights charities, advising on strategic. operational and organisational processes. working across the UK, Kenya and Zimbabwe. I am a trauma-informed doula, and I have worked therapeutically with children and teenagers for over a decade. 

I offer bespoke 1:1 mentoring to people looking for a new or more aligned role in the charity and non-profit sector. 

My feminist beliefs are intersectional and inclusive of all genders, race, ability, sex, class and culture.
