Hello!

I’m Grace, founder of I Am Ally. To give you a little insight about who I am and why I do this work, I'm a musician, author, presenter and I've worked in schools for a decade now delivering mental health education as founder of The Self-Esteem Team (SET). I Am Ally grew from that.

 

Whilst working with 150,000 students, parents and teachers across UK I couldn't help but see that schools are far from allyship driven spaces. I loved the work I was doing with SET but I couldn't shake the feeling that without allyship around anti racism, neurodivergence and mental health, our schools just wouldn't be conducive to happy, healthy students across the board.

​

The topics I cover now with I Am Ally were so entwined in my own mental health journey and it turns out I’m not the only one. There’s some stats* dotted around the site you've likely have stumbled upon.

 

Today, I use my experience of schools, racism, mental health and neurodiversity. I apply the knowledge I've accrued via the many wonderful experts and Drs I've worked alongside throughout the years. I work with your and your school and together we craft a culture that's safe, respectful and celebratory. Once every person in your community feels safe, education can be the focus. Allyship is the key to that feeling of safety.

​

I can't wait to get stuck in and work with you!
