Expertise

• Stigma and discrimination
• Early Intervention

I joined the Forum at the start of 2025 after moving into the mental health field, following a career change and my own lived experience of supporting close family through complex mental health challenges. That experience has shaped my belief that getting help should be simple, stigma-free, and built around real people’s experiences. I’m especially passionate about early intervention, co-production, and making sure lived experience is at the heart of shaping services.
I now work for Conwy Mind, where I lead a new community mental health project focused on early support, reducing stigma, and amplifying lived experience voices across Conwy. My work combines one-to-one support with wider community initiatives, and I bring an academic background in psychology alongside hands-on experience of designing and delivering non-clinical support.
