FEEDBACK
Having worked in the creative arts and care industry for 13 years I feel I have a unique insight into how to support people get the the most out of their creative practice and their life. Working holistically ensuring that people feel heard and part of a co-creation team working towards the goal of art and wellness.

Feedback (for the conference) we have had has all been extremely positive- I think your input came as a breath of fresh air to people who sometimes forget about working creatively with young people! We also really enjoyed your poem which provided a really nice end to the conference. CONFERENCE ORGANISER, NAPO FAMILY COURT
Excellent Facilitator, thank you! Supportive and empathetic but boundaries approach........Really worked, I know and understand much more....Turned a potentially dry subject into an interesting, informative and even interactive one.”— PARTICIPANT’S SAFEGUARDING AND BOUNDARIES TRAINING WEM 2017
Nikki has a unique and admirable ability to bring experience, well being, analysis and academic reflection into one holistic practice. She is creative, empathetic, clear and coherent, She was an integral part of Mouthy Poets, building essential relationships with our young people and also our body of staff. We all learned a lot from her - how to build a healthy, comfortable practice. I carry a little Nikki Disney with me wherever I go, and have learned a lot form her as a young creative building an artistic and entrepreneurial career alongside an emotionally healthy and well rounded life ”— DEBRIS STEPHENSON POET
I have been doing youth theatre for years but that is the first time we have really managed to create a real ensemble piece”— YOUTH THEATRE ACTOR ON SPOONFACE STEINBERG
Brilliant workshop. So important and valuable to have space and time to talk about mental health and wellbeing in the arts”— ARTIST WELLBEING WORKSHOP
I find myself using Nikki’s advice on almost a daily basis, not only in my work life but my personal relationships too. She has taught me how to set boundaries in place, both personally and professionally. She has taught me that I can say no without damaging a relationship. She works with humor and great care and is sensitive to supporting people in making positive change: ”— ANNE HOLLOWAY BIG WHITE SHED |
