ABOUT ELIZABETH – (Photo Below) Elizabeth Mpyisi is a woman of substance! After her family fled her native Uganda she started traveling aged 9. The traumatic experience of living life on the edge, moving from Southern Africa prior to Mandela’s release to the heady heights of Geneva, Switzerland left a permanent mark on her psyche, both good and bad. The determination to help people less fortunate than herself led to 25 years of service to African refugees, when she became the voice of the voiceless as an international human rights lawyer with the United Nations. Now as a mum to 2 grown up daughters, she volunteers with charitable organisation which share her values and ethos. The Desmond Tutu Foundation UK, the Surrey Minority Ethnic Forum, the Mindfulness Initiative UK, Care4Calais and the People of Colour Group of the London Buddhist Centre are a few of the platforms. Elizabeth was recently published in the Anthology “Afrikan Wisdom” and has become an expert on UBUNTU MINDFULNESS, a deep subject close to her heart. She’s a trained and certified Mindfulness Practitioner and facilitates drop in sessions for Black and Brown people on topics such as Trauma, Addiction Recovery, Meditation, Aromatherapy for Health and Wellbeing and Discrimination in the Workplace.
