About Me
I am a Welsh-speaking community development practitioner of almost 25 years’ experience.
I now work freelance as a researcher, trainer, and writer on community development matters; as well as being an experienced project manager, facilitator digital inclusion trainer and podcast producer.
I recently published my first book, co-written with Alan Twelvetrees, Community Development, Social Action and Social Planning: A Practical Guide (sixth edition) on Policy Press.
One of the chapters in the book is on the use of digital technologies in community work and I am currently writing a broader text on the topic. I am also writing a biography of the former Wales football international Phil Woosnam, who is regarded as the father professional soccer in the United States.
