I have many years’ experience in managing and sustaining a community building including managing staff and volunteers and organising community and public events. I also have a keen interest in the creative arts and enjoy drawing and painting.

I’m a proud husband, devoted dad, and nature enthusiast who finds joy in creating beautiful, lasting pieces from wood. My guiding values are family, friendship, and the outdoors, and I bring a spirit of care and quality craftsmanship to every project I undertake.

I’m a passionate nature photographer with a love for capturing the beauty of the world around us. Whether it’s the delicate details of wildlife or breathtaking landscapes, I’m always searching for the perfect shot.

I’m a Forest Facilitator with Hare’s Corner Cooperative. My passion revolves around all things nature, I find joy in helping people of all ages connect or reconnect with the natural world. I can teach you various ways to engage with the environment, whether through learning, play, using your senses, or by simply being present.

As a community activist, I embrace the richness of our diverse world, viewing languages, cultures, and traditions not as barriers but as vast oceans of possibilities. I find joy in building connections across these differences, fostering unity and understanding within our community.

I was born in Zambia but have been living and working in Northern Ireland for more than 25 years. What drew me to the Hare’s Corner Cooperative is the magic that happens when different people connect and create something that would not have been possible individually. Sometimes, the most radical thing we can do is connect and build a relationship, whether it is with other humans or the rest of the natural world. What I can offer is support around facilitation, reflective learning and evaluation and participatory budgeting. 

Since the age of 20 I have run several businesses including a sandwich bar and a Morellis Ice Cream Parlour in Garvagh. Today I run a wellness centre in the same building. I have always had a deep passion for exploring alternative ways of healing physical, mental and emotional ill health.

I’m a facilitator passionate about creating opportunities for children of all abilities and their families to connect with nature. I love making, creating, and organising experiences that inspire curiosity, play, and learning in the great outdoors.

I’ve worked with children and young people in a variety of settings, from leading forest school adventures for pre-schoolers to developing creative, nature-based projects for young people. Whether it’s designing interactive trails, crafting storytelling sessions, or supporting schools with participatory budgeting initiatives, I’m driven by a desire to help young people build confidence, explore their creativity, and develop a lifelong connection to the natural world.

I am an experienced forest school facilitator and have a keen interest in the local natural environment and am committed to enhancing it. I enjoy sharing my knowledge of nature with others in the hope that they will come to enjoy, love and care for it too.

I’m passionate about nature, crafting, and getting lost in a good book. As an experienced Forest Guide and writer, I love sharing the magic of nature with others. In my free time, I enjoy being creative through hands-on projects, storytelling, and time spent outdoors.

I’m married to Declan with 2 beautiful (but crazy) children, Sorcha and Sean. I love walking and being out in nature. I also enjoy reading and spending time with family and friends.

I was fortunate to have a fulfilling career as a primary school teacher and now find retirement even more rewarding. I enjoy walking, playing tennis, traveling, and have a love for the theatre. I actively engage in outdoor learning initiatives, and the opportunity to connect with nature and the community. Embracing these passions has made this chapter of life truly enriching.
