✨ Honoured to represent my work at the British Ambassador’s annual KBP celebration in Geneva! 🇬🇧🇨🇭


I was delighted to be invited as a British artist living in Geneva and as a featured guest for my SDG children’s book series, which would be showcased alongside the work of other British authors.

This year’s theme celebrated 250 years of Jane Austen, the beloved British author from my hometown, Bath, UK! It was a glorious summer day in the Ambassador’s garden, filled with theatre performances from local British actors, bringing Jane Austen’s timeless characters to life amongst the roses.


The setting was quintessentially British: beautifully staged with Sanderson Highgrove floral fabrics, books, and blooms, with food stands serving favourites like fish and chips overlooking Lake Geneva.


Amidst all this splendour, I was deeply touched to see my children’s books prominently displayed at the garden entrance, alongside HRH King Charles’s book for children. I had the chance to connect with visitors, share the story behind the project, and see many take the QR code to explore it further online.


💫 A heartfelt thank you to British Ambassador Simon Manley and the brilliant UK Embassy communications team for including me and believing in the power of storytelling for global change. Being part of such a meaningful event was a joy and an honour.
