Mandy Preville-Findlay

Mandy Preville-Findlay is an educator, development facilitator and community collaborator who lives in London. She has cofounded the community group, BEYOND IYANOLA with her husband, Marlon Findlay, which is a diaspora-focused organisation that identifies, amplifies and celebrates the brilliance of the diaspora, globally. As a native Saint Lucian, Mandy is keen to include aspects of her identity in all of her books. See if you can find at least three of the items hidden in the story that reminds her of where she was born. Her first children’s book, and the first in A Family Movement and Discovery Series, is inspired by her nephew Azani and her over 20 years of working with children of all ages. Mandy is currently writing a story for each of her nieces and nephews. Look out for her upcoming books.
