In my spare time I like to cycle (currently in training for the London-to-Brighton bike ride for the British Heart Foundation). I help out with a community theatre project where we are working towards opening our own community arts venue in Walthamstow (https://thecentre17.com)
I also host/DJ at local movie-themed nights as well as hosting craft-beer tasting events (https://twitter.com/beerious_london).
