Amanda has collaborated with various organisations including schools, libraries, arts centres and healthcare services. In recent years this has encompassed working with local NHS Trusts, whereby she’s been commissioned to write and perform poetry that raises awareness of services and campaigns. Some of this work includes Reach Out; written for a mental health campaign, which was created into posters and displayed across the West Midlands. It further includes Grateful; written to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the NHS & arrival of the Windrush generation.

Amanda’s workshops have helped towards raising awareness of the need for diversity in education. The poem 1954 has been used in schools to support children’s learning on the history of the Windrush generation. She’s also worked alongside projects that have highlighted other diverse aspects of history, this incorporates a poem that was created for an exhibition on the Black Tudors at Selly Manor Museum.

Additionally, Amanda has written poetry in honour of her mother; This One’s for You Mum is featured in an NHS anthology and a further tribute is displayed in the Chaplaincy Department at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham.
