All about Leni

I’m Leni — a Therapeutic Arts Practitioner, Certified Forest Therapist, and wholehearted believer in the healing power of nature. I guide people back to themselves through creative expression, embodied presence, and meaningful connection with the Earth. For over 21 years, I’ve worked within council-run services and charities across Suffolk, supporting young people and families to thrive. My experience includes helping NEET young people find direction, supporting those in care with life skills, and running BOOST groups for young carers to nurture resilience. I’ve led community projects, coordinated Home-Start programmes, supported excluded young people through YMCA Training, and worked as a Personal Support Tutor at West Suffolk College. Alongside this, I’ve loved working as a pre-school playworker, engaging children in arts and crafts, and running toddler groups on base to support forces families.
