I work as a yoga teacher and am an ambassador and volunteer for SOBS (Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide), heading up their Reigate Support Group.

After working for ten years as an actress I proceeded to train as a Relate counsellor supporting couples and young people. Going on to work for NAPAC (National Association for People Abused in Childhood) and Witness Against Abuse.

My personal highlight has been finally having the courage to tell my own story; living with a father with undiagnosed mental health issues who went on to take his own life. Leaving behind a confession for the police saying he had abused me, something I had no memory of. My memoire was published by Mirror Books in June 2023.

I believe that sharing our humanness is the best way to challenge isolation, battle stigma, and support each other through life’s challenges.
