Following the Art for ASBAH event, I just couldn't resist getting involved in the John Clare Summer Festival. The event was held at Torpel Manor Field in Helpston where the Langdyke Trust, are doing a lot of work to preserve the old site. And a rare occasion of seeing me painting out in the open fields.

Along with Arts and Mind exhibition at the Edith Cavell Centre the PAOS exhibition was a big hit again this year. Joining forces with artist Faye Gagel-Panchal and friends, it was an exciting and busy three weekends.

The CPFT BME Support Network BHM, Conference, was held on 1 st October at the Millennium Centre, in Peterborough and I was most honoured to be a part of the event. My Black Heroes Collection featured proudly in the hall where Linda Bellos OBE, was the main speaker of the evening. She did ask the question 'why am I not up there?'
