Welcome to Feed Our Communities CIC
I support individuals, small organisations and communities to build more balanced, resilient and meaningful ways of working and living.
My work brings together virtual assistance, consultancy, permaculture education and community‑led environmental projects — all rooted in care, dignity and sustainable design.
Whether you’re looking for practical support, more space in your workload, or opportunities to learn, I can help you take the next step.
Land, Food and People
I’m developing a fully accessible, community‑led permaculture site that brings together food growing, environmental learning and inclusive enterprise.
This space is designed to support people of all backgrounds and abilities to connect with land, build skills and shape a fairer, more resilient future.
The project focuses on:
- regenerative food growing
- adaptive agroecology
- composting and soil health
- biodiversity restoration
- nature‑connected wellbeing
- inclusive enterprise and skills development
I’m currently seeking funding to establish a steering group so the project can be co‑designed by the people it’s for.
This early‑stage work lays the foundations for a future agroecology farm and education centre rooted in care, dignity and ecological renewal.
Employment: Virtual Assistance & Consultancy
I support sole traders, small businesses, charities and not‑for‑profits with practical, grounded help that reduces overwhelm and creates more sustainable ways of working.
Services include:
• Administrative support
• Task management
• Project support
• Bookkeeping support
• Data entry
• Research (e.g. information gathering, funding research, background research)
• Systems setup & organisation
• Workflow and resource coordination
• Light consultancy around planning, structure and sustainable working practices.
I have a particular interest in supporting people moving from unemployment into self‑employment, helping them build confidence, structure and stability in their work.
[Work With Me]
Education: Permaculture & Environmental Learning
I offer permaculture and environmental education for individuals, communities and organisations who want to design more sustainable, people‑centred ways of living and working.
This includes:
- introductory permaculture courses
- community‑focused and applied permaculture
- practical workshops on land‑based skills
- learning that links land, food, community and livelihoods
I’m also developing accredited pathways so that this learning can be formally recognised and more widely accessible.
Research: Practice, Learning & Collaboration
Research runs through all areas of my work.
I’m interested in:
- how land‑based projects can support fairer employment and enterprise
- how food, nature and community spaces impact wellbeing and resilience
- practical, on‑the‑ground approaches to agroecology, composting and regenerative systems
- models that reduce exclusion and financial hardship through inclusive, sustainable design
This research is both practical and collaborative — emerging from real projects, partnerships and lived experience, rather than being separate from everyday life.
