Bio
Originally from the UK, I now live in Poland. I am an author and editor by profession having earned an MA in Creative Writing at East Anglia University. In 2021, I started the parkrun event in my local town. I also run a campaign to protect some nearby meadows from a planned railway construction.
I'm passionate about
I love activities that bring people together for free and encourage friendships across social divides. Parkrun is a perfect example, but I also participate in cold-water dipping and ecological campaigning.
An idea worth spreading

The TED story
I've just been appointed the new licensee and lead organizer of TEDxJarocin! As preparations proceed for our first event in Jarocin, Poland, I'm constantly looking for new ways to fan sparks of energy and creativity in our little town.
