About

Our Team - who we are:

Blossom and Belong is a Community Interest Company (CIC) created with one goal in mind: to support girls experiencing anxiety in a safe, understanding environment.

We believe in the power of gentle community. Our sessions are led by volunteers who care deeply about listening, uplifting, and making every girl feel valued.

Anxiety can feel isolating, but you’re not alone - and you don’t have to go through it by yourself.

Blossom and Belong is a place where courage grows in connection.

Fay

Co Founder

Hi, I’m Fay – a mum of three and a passionate advocate for neurodiverse children (and grown-ups too!). I’ve lived with selective mutism for as long as I can remember, which has given me a deep, personal understanding of what it’s like to move through the world a little differently. We share our home with a very cool gecko named Echo – he’s full of character and always a hit with the kids! Over the years, I’ve worked in various roles supporting children, and nothing brings me more joy than creating safe, nurturing spaces where young people feel seen, heard, and free to be themselves. I’m currently studying psychology (because I’m endlessly fascinated by how our minds work!), with a special love for all things neurodiversity. For the past four years, I’ve also been home educating my eldest daughter, who is autistic and has dyspraxia – it's been a journey filled with learning, laughter, and plenty of creativity. Whether I’m crafting, studying, or just chatting over a cuppa, I’m always up for connecting with others who care about making the world a more inclusive, compassionate place.

Natalie

Website Design

Hi, I’m Natalie - a lifelong crafter, and proud mom of two amazing boys. Life took an unexpected turn when my youngest, who is neurodivergent, wasn’t able to access the school environment. With my focus shifting to home life, I wanted to keep my brain active while still being present for my family. That’s when I connected with Fay, looking for a way to volunteer from home. Together, we came up with the idea for this website, and I put my IT skills to work, helping design and bring it to life. It’s been an incredible journey, and we truly hope you love what we’ve created. When I’m not behind a screen or crafting something new, I’m spending time with my family and our lovely dog, Roxy.

Our Mission

Our Mission

As a Community Interest Company (CIC), we’re here to create a safe, calm, and welcoming space for anxious girls to simply be themselves. We've walked this path with our own daughters, we understand how tough it can be when anxiety makes the world feel too big and overwhelming. That’s why we started this group - to build a gentle community where girls can join in with fun, low-pressure activities, make friends at their own pace, and know they truly belong. There’s no pressure to take part - just a place to feel supported, seen, and accepted, exactly as they are.

Our Vision

We believe every anxious girl deserves a place where she feels safe, accepted, and free to be herself. Our vision is to create a community where anxiety doesn’t mean isolation - where girls can build confidence, form real friendships, and discover joy in their own time and their own way.

We imagine a future where support is gentle, spaces are inclusive, and every girl knows she truly belongs. Through connection, creativity, and kindness, we hope to grow a network of young girls who feel seen, valued, and never alone.
