Biography

I support people, groups and organisations, bringing them more into their power and creativity by using Permaculture and 8 Shields Institute design principles.

I teach and convene 8 Shields Introduction weekends around the UK and Europe, I am one of the lead organisers of the UK ‘Art of Mentoring’ Camp, and along with my partner Rebecca Card i run the ‘Bringing it Home’ 8 Shields yearlong training

I also teach Permaculture Design Courses, People Permaculture courses and bespoke Permaculture trainings.

I support people individually as well, with ongoing mentoring relationships in person or on regular calls.

I love singing and music, and i have self recorded 2 albums of acoustic songs. I enjoy running in the woods and moors, wild swimming and visiting new places.

I am deeply grateful for my hobbit-cottage home on a Dartmoor farm and my partner Rebecca who i share it with, and for all the wildlife that lives around us, weaving through our lives in delightful and surprising ways.
