The creative educator, writer and poet spreading creativity in the community

I almost always create at home but it is usually shared at community events or online.

I’m North Manchester born and bred it is fused with my DNA at this point. It has seen my highest and lowest moments and the spirit of North Manchester is what I try to put most into my work.

What role do you think creativity plays in our community?

I think it serves as a message of love and support for the people that might not see the best in themselves and I hope that my community sees me as a reassurance that they can do whatever they set their mind to.

Do you feel artists from North Manchester are visible and valued across the city?

I feel like there’s not a lot of sense of direction if you don’t know where to look and many creative projects that do exist in north Manchester don’t have enough funding to run long term sometimes.

However, I believe that as soon as a north Mancunian is noticed they can’t be ignored – ultimately I believe that we are valued definitely, but we aren’t as visible as we should be.
