"I've worked with Eshe on a number of projects, what impresses is their fearless determination not only to get the right results, but to work with integrity, and to get the right results the right way"

Their incalculably valuable insight formed by their extensive experience has been vital to the success of those projects, and their contribution has been instrumental in the foundations of our organisation."

    who I will work with.

    I will only work with individuals, groups and organisations that I feel will benefit and learn from my involvement or that already align with my politics. I will not put time, energy, labour and care into projects that harm my communities, are hiring me for tokenism or are not active in supporting Black people and other marginalised people.

    I love to work with small, grassroots organisations and groups that are dedicated to community support.

    I can work with individuals and groups across the country via zoom, skype, telegram, signal or email and I can work with groups local to Nottingham or East Midlands in person.

    why me?

    I have a wealth of experience in organising and running projects and campaigns. I have a love for community work, activism and challenging the status quo. I champion inclusivity and awareness in all that I do and am not afraid to be loud and honest with my opinions. 

    I can help you hold your organisations accountable or to check that the work you are doing is culturally safe and inclusive. I can help you run events, workshops and projects. 

    If you are an individual, I can help with campaigns, signposting, fundraising and more.

    I always put the most energy, love and care into everything that I do and I'd love to work with you!

    "working on events with Eshe was a wonderful experience. They were super organised, reliable, and creative. It’s exciting to collaborate with someone who works on so many projects in different fields.

    To book me, please go to the contact section of the website and send me a message with your name and a contact phone number (use an alias for safety if needed) and some information about what you are looking for me to support with and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

    I charge a sliding scale from free for marginalised individuals in need up to a full rate for bookings that is dependent on whether you are an individual, group or organisation and the type of work you are requiring from me. A quote will be provided via email.

    No marginalised person who is in need of emergency support will ever be turned away. If I can't personally support you then I will signpost you to someone who hopefully can.
