I am a core group member and founder of the homelessness abolitionists. We are a group of people who have experienced homelessness developing leadership in the homeless community in sheffield. We get poltically educated together and show up for the homeless community.

I faciliated a 2 day training in a team of 4 faciliators to support organisers in edingburgh to explore their class positions and understand how to redistrubte wealth & resources better across movement.

As a member of the CWP I faciliated a workshop that supported the GAM team to reflect on their own class positions. We held difficult conversations about what it means to work across class.

In Dec 2024 I became a member of the Class Work Project. Since then I have faciliated & supported the design of workshops related to class solidarity and weatlh redistrubution.

We co-created a process that wove together different needs of members of the team. This included taking collective responsbility for power dynamics, mediation and organisational learning.

I visited the RYSE for a second time and faciliated youth organsiers to do outreach in their local community. I also facilited sessions on leadership development and committment to the people.

I supported Resource Justice with a revision of their cirriculum 'Praxis'. To do this I listened to members of the team and wove their contributions into a potential new form which we then emergently adapted together. we used non-verbal forms of decision making as well as forms of consensus.

I facilitated a decision making process for the AYO. The grup were in a time of transition from discussing how to fund in more liberatory ways to making decisions about what to fund. I used a mixture of 1:1's consenus & emergence.

I faciliated youth organisers at the RYSE to understand the organsing they wanted to do around thier youth assembly called mutinty. This invovled supporting the group to create & make decisions about a 3 year organsing strategy. I also supportied the team to plan andthen go out and do a base building drive.

I worked as a senior organiser for Stop Funding Heat. I conducted a listening campaign. organised 1:1's and began to develop leadership of thsoe invovpled. From the listening campaign I designed a 5 year organsing strategy. I planned a base building drive & wrote scripts to be used on outreach.

I worked as a co-facilitator for the Service User Research Enterprise at King's College London. Our task was to support moving through difficult emotions in order to develop a new understanding of the group's values, purpose and goals.

I worked as a researcher, content designer and facilitator for Perry Walker at Talkshop.org. This involved understanding homelessness in a global context and creating content for democratic methods to increase understanding between polarised views.

I worked as a blog content creator for the Sheila McKechnie Foundation where I wrote blogs on the theme of solidarity. This work involved listening deeply to communities experiencing injustice.

I worked as a community organiser for WCCP, a migrant-led anti gentrification campagin. The community was bidding to own and self-manage the Wards Corner Building which they fought to prevent from being demonlised. My work included, deep organising, relationship building, facilitating and planning meetings, influencing organisational culture, moving through conflict and writing recommendations.

I was a facilitator for two of the New Economy Organisers Network’s (NEON’s) ‘Movement Builders’ training. I worked with a team of facilitators and trainers in a programme that taught participants from across movement spaces about movement ecology, appreciation and strategy. You can see the report we wrote here.

I was a solo-facilitator for the Economic Change Unit to hold space for them to reflect on their years work. I hosted a celebration, supported the team through some difficult emotions that came up as a result of an anti-oppression report and supported the team to identify key areas of work for the following year.

Whilst working for Haringey Council’s Housing-related support team, I organised homelessness workers to resist evictions of people labelled as ‘No Recourse to Public Funds’. I then co-founded a coalition called 'Support Not Deport' which successfully passed motions through several union branches in local authorities to ask the local authorities not to evict anyone described as ‘NRPF’ or to work with the home office.

I co-founded Haringey Streets Kitchen, a grassroots community that stands in solidarity with those experiencing homelessness through sharing food and responding to issues that people experiencing homelessness are facing whilst standing on the street in solidarity with them.
