As a co-founder of Recultured, I bring over 14 years of experience in supporting victims and training professionals. I hold a Law degree from the University of Leeds, where I focused my dissertation on developing guidelines for universities to include forced marriage and honour-based abuse in their policies. My research revealed that only a handful of universities had these issues publicised on their websites, highlighting a significant gap in institutional responses back in 2015. Fast forward 10 years, I am thrilled to be in a position where I can bring this vision to life with colleagues who are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate.
I have worked in higher education within dedicated teams that support staff and students experiencing abuse. I have co-created domestic abuse policies, developed training on a range of issues affecting tackling harassment, hate and harmful practices, and collaborated with external partners to create webinars focused on forced marriage and honour-based abuse.
My extensive experience and commitment to supporting victims and survivors have driven my passion for transforming university responses to harmful practices. Through Recultured, I aim to create safer and more responsive educational environments, ensuring that victims and survivors receive the support they need- regardless of their student status.

"My practice is informed by both lived experience and a professional background in supporting individuals affected by complex social issues, particularly forced marriage, honour-based violence, and sexual violence. This dual perspective enables me to approach these sensitive topics with both authenticity and deep empathy, fostering an environment where these often underrepresented issues can be addressed meaningfully.
By integrating my artistic practice with my crisis support work, I create a platform for open dialogue, reflection, and healing. This unique intersection allows me to engage with individuals in ways that are grounded in real-world understanding, offering them not only a space to share their experiences but also to find solidarity. As both an artist and facilitator, I aim to facilitate a process of empowerment, enabling others to navigate their own paths to healing while contributing to a broader conversation around these critical social issues."
