Mental health programs that combine fashion with well-being such as Hope FX
When I was four my mother was sectioned and was lost in a haze and a maze that she never found the exit out of. I learnt very early on that without positive mental health you really have nothing!
I am a Mental Health First Aider, Level 2 counsellor and currently studying for a level 5 qualification in Mental Health and Well-Being. I am also a Lead Designated Safeguaring Officer and Prevent practioner.
Over the last 17 years I have created many community-based programs such as Hope FX with NHS (thanks to Zac Holloway), worked with Arsenal and Addidas on T-shirt printing, recycling classes with Islington Council, Westfield, Net-a-Porter and N Brown Group.
Again these programs have all been part of working with the amazing team of FEL
