Welcome to my new website. Having recently completed my PhD in contextual theology I thought it would be helpful to make some of this research accessible, along with my other research in child maltreatment, safeguarding and child death review.
At the heart of all this, and as a significant thread throughout my career, has been a longing for all children to grow up safely, secure in the knowledge that they are loved and cared for.
Sadly, that is not the reality for many children.
Having worked for over 25 years as a paediatrician specialising in child protection, I have sought to understand more of why and how children are abused and what we as a society can do to protect them. This has led to different strands of research, most recently an exploration of safeguarding in the Church of England.
I am still developing the website and will add material to it as I am able. I hope you will bear with me in this.
