Over the years I have seen and participated in many discussions, conferences and events. I have watched interesting organisations and individuals do amazing work.

If you hear of interesting events or individuals and organisations that you want to draw to my attention do not hesitate to get in touch.
There has been some fantastic work done by individuals and organisations who have kept and maintained a history of individuals who have worked and lived within the care system. This section outlines some of these great resources.
