Meet The Team
Joinavison is a collective mindset, without everyone contributing the group would not be where it is today. We are so thankful to everyone who has been involved. We’re so grateful for your support. We are always open to new people getting involved and to help start creating the world we want to live in.

Venetia
Venetia's garden party in 2020 was where it all began! We saw a need to connect community-minded people passionate about creating a less-divisive world. Venetia is a healer, connector and passionate about evolving consciousness.
Stefan
Stefan is a talented musician, author, performer and singer/song-writer. He connects people all over the world through his dance retreats and is embarking on new adventures to Egypt with Joinavision. He's an incredible performer and feels passionately about healing trauma through dance.
Mick
Mick has been a grounding presence from the very first time we met. He's incredibly hard working, always quick to laugh and there to lighten the mood when things get tough. His continued support for Joinavision has kept us going during many spells of self-doubt. He has a natural joie-de-vivre combined with a bit of downtrodden Brit. Now he's helping us create videos in order to get our message out to a wider audience.
Alan
Alan has been supporting us from almost the very beginning. Having worked at a very senior level with major charities is he's now showing us what help actually works and what keeps people stuck. Joinavision had no specific goal at the beginning but Alan's advice is invaluable in getting us to the next step as we research charities, community projects and co-operatives.
Carl
Carl is a singer/song-writer and is prolific in his creativity - having written over 1,000 songs. He's also keen to share his skills and knowledge with others by building their confidence with music. He has seen how music can help people with dementia and is passionate about bringing music to as many as possible.
Karen
Karen is a lady of many talents. Having worked on the wards of A&E for many years she's now on a new path of healing. Healing trauma we've held on to prevents us from moving to the next stage of our journey. Karen is a facilitator of this next step so that people can then activate their inner power.
Kay
Kay is a talented artist who sees the importance in expressing ourselves through our creations and is always looking at ways she can facilitate this with others. Art, like so much of what we do, is incredibly therapeutic but we put blockages up as to why we can't do it. Kay wants to show people how art can help and support us through difficult times in our lives and that it doesn't matter what you create - it's the creating that's important.
Louise
Louise is a Mum, Doula, Healer & Dance teacher and now a crystal jewellery maker too! She's also kind, very caring and incredibly active in Essex. She feels passionately about creating better births and supporting parents more than they currently are. A woman of many talents and an amazing zest for life.
Rich
The most important thing for Rich is to see an ending to the suffering that is prevalent in our world. He's an advocate of meditation and therapeutic work. He likes to keep a balance between evidence based medicine and personal experimentation. His own personal journey has meant researching fasting, Tai Chi and other physical modalities for health and personal protection. He also sees that overcoming our own psychological biases is a very important role in this journey.
Ewout
A man with many words of wisdom! Ewout is an advocate of free speech no matter how taboo the topic. He's now involved with the Death Cafes and hosts one in his local area. A keen facilitator of discussions which can grow into a creative space is one of his many passions.
Mark Griffin
We met Mark at a local camp the year after Joinavision began. His passion and knowledge for tea using foraged plants was evident from our very first conversation. His foraging walks followed by a tea ceremony are incredibly popular and a must for anyone wanting to feel more connected to their local area.
“I am In-joy, creating, expressing playing in, through, with nature as consciousness, dancing, moving this beautiful body! My passion is foraging, tasting personally sourced wild harvested teas in ceremony and socially, traveling, sharing the knowing that I am.”
Nicola
Nicola is another person who has been with us almost the very beginning. She was the first person to suggest creating another local page – her county of Essex. Her suggestion helped us have the confidence to see there was a bigger demand to connect people further afield than we had expected. We feel very lucky that nearly three years on she’s still involved and happy to be part of our team.
