Evie Muir

Evie Muir is both a domestic abuse survivor and qualified domestic abuse specialist, writer and the founder of Peaks of Colour – a Peak District based nature-for-healing community group, by and for people of colour.

Having worked in the VAWG sector for over 10 years, specialising in Black and queer survivors’ intersectional experiences of gendered and racialised trauma, she left the sector when she became burnt out, disenfranchised and disillusioned. Her work now sits on the intersections of gendered, racial and land justice, and seeks to nurture survivors’ joy, rest, hope and imagination as abolitionist praxis. As a Northern freelance writer, she’s passionate about the liberating form of writing as healing and resistance.
