As well as exhibiting work, Ruby has delivered a wide range of Art workshops in many areas. She has worked in community settings with all ages, in mental health, with the elderly, in schools and in holiday clubs for young people.

"Ruby, a talented painter in her own right, has the unusual ability to impart her skills, interest and enthusiasm to any group of people that she works with. She shows empathy and understanding to both vulnerable people and those with special needs and is completely adaptable to the requirement of participants in any situation. She is valued as one of Borderland Voices' most able facilitators and we would recommend her work to any group involved in providing therapeutic creative activities."
Sheena Barnes, Borderland Voices
