"I was born in Wales but grew up in Wiltshire, it feels like I have been around children all my life, starting with my little sister who was born when I was 7. I used to make up stories telling her about ' Flora the ghost who lived in the attic.' I taught English as a second language to many children during a 12 year period living in Sardegna, Started and ran a youth club, Summer camps, Sunday school and I also volunteered as a Beaver and Cubs leader. The magic of children has influenced my entire journey and I ended up having 4 amazing sons. Now I also have 4 grandchildren...... so far"
