Guidelines Team Lead

I am a research psychologist specialising in child development and play. I run FUNdamentally Children and the Good Play Guide. I am also the chair of the Association of Play Industries. I helped set up the accreditation programme for the Children's Activities Association and am often in the media talking about childrens' issues.
