About

Beth’s Experience

With over nine years of hands-on experience in textile printing, Beth has spent the last three years running Lyoness Press, specialising in high-quality DTG (Direct-to-Garment) and DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing.

Her technical expertise is paired with a background in the therapeutic arts as an expressive arts facilitator, where she's led creative programs for children, young people, and adults within marginalised communities - including individuals with learning disabilities, disabled artists, young people in kinship care, neurodivergent groups, and refugee and asylum seeker communities.

Beyond commercial production, Beth’s personal creative practice centres on printmaking, transforming intuitive mark-making into intricate screen prints. As an active studio member at Northern Print in Newcastle, she bridges technical print expertise, creative storytelling, and community-focused advocacy into every project at Lyoness Press.
