Mere Mortals
In January 2018 a team of five experienced white water kayakers were caught in a flash flood while attempting the first descent of a river in Ecuador. My brother Adam was one of three that died. Three years after holding his ashes in my hands, this is a story about coming to terms with mortality.

Rooted in Bristol
Rooted in Bristol is a documentary celebrating the contribution that people of African heritage have made over many decades, in creating and sustaining kitchen gardens across the allotment communities of Bristol over the last 50 years or more. Many individuals have worked their allotments for decades and some have been using seeds, which were brought from the Caribbean and Africa. Rooted in Bristol explores individual histories and stories, and raises the question ‘who has access to green spaces and what are the barriers that exist to obtaining that access?'
