Evie Cowan

Year started working:
September 2025

What do you love about your job:
I love how creative I get to be here. I just love building relationships with our incredible young people and encouraging them in their giftings. Coming from a musical background it has been such a joy facilitating music mentoring with multiple young people, and I love running a girls group and Junior Drop In each week. 

What you love about Ballysillan:
I love the community here, our young people are so special to us and I love getting to be a part of this place.

Favourite activity to do in the centre:
Music mentoring, because I love seeing the young people progress and encouraging them as they play their instruments, but I also really love the craft room vibes on monday and wednesday nights, where we’ve got anything from just-dance to twister, bracelet making and upcycling crafts, so much fun! 

Favourite item from tuck shop:
Thai Sweet Chilli Sensations

Tell us about you and what you like to do outside of work (family, hobbies):
I enjoy spending time with my family, Mum, Dad and little younger Josiah, and my crazy pup Stormi. I love being outdoors, going to the beach and seeing as much of the world as possible, and I love music, writing my own songs and singing with my friends.
