Songwriter, poet, playwright. Director of Invisible Folk.

Mindful Verses is a two hour meditation and poetry writing workshop led by Reinhard Kowalski and Jon Bickley.

A grassroots celebration of literature with an annual poetry competition, a poetry anthology and podcasts.

This project started with an Arts Council grant and a partnership with the Cowper and Newton Museum in Olney, Bucks.

We talked to lots of people about the life of John Newton and created a podcast series that looked at the history of empire and slavery, of preaching and hymn writing and of the abolitionist movement.

Then I invited Angeline Morrison and Cohen Braithwaite-Kilcoyne to join me in writing some songs and that became an album.

Then John Palmer arrived and developed a script and liaised with  festivals and theatres and that became the very successful Grace will lead me home tour.
