I work closely with UK secondary schools to inspire students, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds, to engage with Art at GCSE and beyond. Through workshops and talks, I share my lived experiences to show that a career in the Arts is achievable regardless of class or background. These engagements allow me to encourage students to pursue further study in Art at FE and HE, explore creative careers, and contribute to my ongoing research into the lack of socio-economic diversity in the Arts.
