I’ve been a part of Artrium since 2012.

I started as a volunteer, looking for something to help in my recovery of depression and anxiety, and instantly felt a part of something rewarding and wholesome. My background is art, studying fine art, and design tech then graduating from Cleveland College of Art & Design (now Northern School of Art) with BA (Hons) in Entertainment Design Crafts.

The opportunity came in 2013 to become the resident Wellbeing Practitioner of Artrium, where I supported the many members in their recovery and development and worked as part of a great team of volunteers to create new and exciting opportunities for everyone involved. In 2017 I was promoted to Project Lead where I’ve remained, supporting the charity to become something that the community needs, delivering a quality service to those that need it.
