“Too often, our children are left forgotten and forlorn through the breakdown of homes and families across the UK. It is a great honour to be able to support Comfort Cases UK, to bring respect and dignity, in some small way, to our children in order to try to protect their futures.”

Academic Research

The evidence is clear that early childhood experiences have a significant impact on child development. Comfort cases UK is not just about providing material aid in time of need (which is very important) but is also about showing care, consideration and support for children as well as for those who care about the child’s journey. As a chartered psychologist and an academic I hope to bring in an evidence-base lens through which we can translate the impact that CCUK is having on children’s lives and those who care for them.

As a care experienced individual, I know first hand how important the work of Comfort Cases is in making children feel like they and their things are valued.

I am honoured to have been asked to be a Trustee for this amazing charity and look forward to contributing to their amazing work and their  driving efforts forward so we can reach even more children and young people growing up in care.
