Hello, I’m Lavender 🪻
I am a Youth Worker, emerging creative writer and passionate advocate based in South West, UK.
Never a specialist, always a curious explorer.
My passions are youth work, wellbeing and advocacy, and writing is my way of creative self-expression.
Generation Evolve is the youth movement I created to make self-care and self-awareness a lifestyle for young people, through wellbeing workshops, mentoring and social action projects.
Seen Sisters, which I founded, is a non profit organisation by and for solo women with invisible disabilities. Together we joyfully reimagine spaces, creating a world in which we feel seen.
Relaxation, playfulness, movement, mindfulness and creative writing all weave through my work. Through my workshops, young people have found ways to express themselves in poetry and journaling.
From 2019 to 2023 I was part of The Outsiders Project in Boscombe. I’ve also worked with the University of Bristol on the Temperature Life Stories project, and I’m part of the Black Creatives network here in Bristol. Travel, cultures, food, dance, nature and wellbeing practices are what light me up.
For me, it’s important to balance playfulness and rest to keep a balanced life.
