| Introduction | I am a community and environment/biodiversity activist and trainee Buddhist. I am a strong believer in new methods of participation. I think we should all see our lives as living breathing artists and artisans, learning a craft, being apprentices, learning every day something new. Something small or large.It doesn't matter and we shouldn't worry if we are ill or happy or sad or lazy. Sod all that labelling. See it as crap and move on. Currently an intern with Cool It Schools. We have a project to build a fruit and vegetable garden as part of UN Year of Family Farming 2014. I believe in charities but I also don't believe in people being taken advantage of by working for nothing when they deserve $'s or a £'s I recently completed a degree in Politics with Peace and Conflict Studies which I enjoyed immensely. |

I have started a new organisation called the Southwark Healthy Tree Watch. We aim to stop healthy trees from being destroyed for health and safety and insurance reasons without strong evidence and evident alternatives being considered. |
