Projects

Learning

I'm privileged to have been part of the learning team at the prestigious Chelsea Physic Garden. In 2023, I facilitated visits to the garden for groups of people interested in learning more about the historic, cultural and scientific value of this unique garden. You can find out more about their social and therapeutic community projects here.

Gardening

I’m working with the Maudsley charity and Walworth Garden to green up Saint Giles House in Camberwell. We have managed a budget of over £2,000 to revitalise a heavily concreted urban community space. Our long-term plan is to collaborate with Walworth Garden to improve the space and allow people to feel a sense of agency and accomplishment in gardening. You can find out more about the Green Saint Giles project here.

Writing

I've co-authored several academic publications in the medical literature with colleagues from across the globe. I'm currently working on a set of writing projects focusing on urban biodiversity. You can find a recent example of a book review I have done in the Spring edition of Hortus (2024) and an upcoming report of my field experience botanising in Central Bosnia (supported by the RHS Horticultural bursary).
