We had a packed panel of creative entrepreneurs at Second Home Holland Park on Monday, the 12th May, capturing the energy, intentions, and purpose behind crafting for well-being during London Craft Week. A big thank you to Alexandra Lunn for curating such a thoughtful and inspiring evening and to Peter Stojanovic for chairing the event and sharing insightful anecdotes on crafting for wellbeing to support the launch of Alexandra's new platform Well–Crafted.

I shared the floor with Gifty Enright, coach and TEDx speaker; 𝗥𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻, pleating for pleasure; 𝗟𝗮𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗻 𝗚𝗼𝗱𝗳𝗿𝗲𝘆, pattern lover and podcaster; and Sicgmone Kludge, one of the founders of Black Girl Knit Club. Each shared their superpowers in crafting for well-being for themselves and their audiences. And a big thank you to Kelan from Darlings of Hackney for the expert photography.

Thank you also to Second Home for hosting us in their beautiful light-filled space in Holland Park (ex Richard Rogers studio 😍 see images below. ) 

It’s a fine space, and the thunder and lightning passed us by!

This vine was planted in the 1970’s by architect Richard Rogers, when the space was his home to his architecture studio. He also built the outdoor walkways you see above you…
