I run workshops to cater to the specific needs and skills of a variety of groups. I have experience of working with a broad range of participants including artists, school children, senior citizens, post-graduates, women’s groups, poetry and creative writing groups.
I have recently worked for STASH, Blackpool Arts, The Broughton Trust, Salford Univeristy and The Arvon Foundation and lectured at sympossiums and conferences nationwide.

I am an associate lecturer within the School of Art at Manchester Metropolitan University and a visiting lecturer at London College of Communication.

I regularly deliver a series of weekend & evening workshops at Hot Bed Press in Manchester in Box Making, Contemporary Bookmaking, Hard backed books, Advanced Book binding and Creating Artists' Books. For details of upcoming courses and bookings please visit: www.hotbedpress.org

I am currently in New York on a research trip and will return in early 2012. Please check for upcoming workshops soon.
