Former SEND Teacher. Jumped land to live on a ship. Author of MUD BOY - an anti-bullying resource for young children - published by JKP. Writer of HUG WORDS - helping children to worry less and wonder more.
The hair may be longer, but the message is the same: #antibullyingweek is over, but the fight against bullying goes on. Kidscape does incredible work all year round, and Mud Boy is a great book for schools to use whenever they need it.

"I was really intrigued to find out if someone had actually nailed the hard subject of verbal bullying in a story we would be able to share with all the children. I don't have the words to adequately describe how powerful a tale I find Mud Boy to be!

Pleasure! When our son left for Uni, a few years later, I asked everyone what their favourite song was. I made him a Spotify playlist to go away with.

Got a child about to leave for Uni? Ask friends and family to email you their favourite foolproof recipe - invariably they’ll add a memory and best wishes too. Print it off and folder it together. Makes a really special gift - and keeps you busy! #emptynest #leavinghome

The newspapers lining this military kit chest, which belonged to my grandpa, make fascinating reading. They are as much of a treasure as the chest itself.

The young person I work for, who has CP and a sprinkling of ASD, told me this week that I look like the lion from The Wizard of Oz. You can’t beat those honest ASD comments! #ilovemyjob
