Helen Malia

• Worked comprehensively with all key stages, running woodland arts and crafts sessions, including cooking bread over the fire, willow sculptures, mandala making, den building, forestry, and environmental education in a woodland setting.

• Created an arts and environmental program for the foundation phase in RCT. Working mainly in clay in thirty-two different settings, teaching staff and children both in classroom and outdoor settings. I evaluated individual settings.

• I was hired to create the Winter Commission at Wales Millennium Centre. My 3D artworks were shown in the Glanfa area. This was, 'under the hat' of Coedwig Creu as we chose the theme of woodlands in Winter.

I ran community workshops with Riverside residents at Coedwig Creu Woods. Photographs of their work were shown, as well as the three-story commission I made.

• As a creative agent, I helped develop bespoke art projects to enhance literacy, numeracy, and attainment.

• Motivated local residents to grow food and improve Grange Pavilion Gardens. Managed volunteers and apprentices. Delivered biodiversity and compost workshops to local schools. Organized events. Liaised with Cardiff Parks to pass on the wishes of local residents.

• I created three activity video for NHS staff.
