Author & researcher on care & education history, fostering, care leavers. Politely flogging book. Also mother, foster carer, dog ‘owner’ (she rules us) & keeper of hens. Tendency to rant about state of education & why people can’t just be nice.

Hugely enjoying ‘Infants & Institutions’ international conference at the London Foundling Museum. Powerful, moving, funny, enraging stories. Not your usual conference!
