Maggie is the founder of Families in Trauma and Recovery, and felt impelled to try to fill a gap in what she experienced when facing difficult family trauma, and there seemed to be no where to turn at that point. For her, lived experience and peer support were literally "superpowers" that should be tapped into and used not only for personal benefit but for the sake of anyone else facing really challenging times. Maggie's background is as a community filmmaker, so is also passionate about using digital when it serves a valuable purpose. But laterally she combined those skills with setting up this social enterprise which has been a huge learning curve. However, as "Building Alliance, not Compliance" is the motto - Maggie is determine to make sure this "way of being" is taken forward in all the organisation does.
