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.
So powerful to hear the voices of the ‘foundlings’ and such a moving & apt paper for the conference to end on!
