There is a lot of people out there who are a bit depressed and art can help them. My motto is stop don’t believing in yourself, you are a hero yourself, think about where you want to be. I have my dream and I know what I want to do. I am very proud in myself and I am doing something right. I used to work in a small office with four people. It’s been a journey of growing bigger and learning.

I run the creative hands group. I teach people how to cross stitch, knit, sewing and crochet.

Art makes me happy and I like showing my work to people. I want to carry on with the good work I’ve done. You have a hero inside yourself.

My name is Susan Hanley, I am an advocate for people with disabilities. If people want me to talk of their behalf, I can, but if not let me know.
