About

Our story, values, and mission to support children’s learning and development. 

About the Communication Club 

I’m a former teacher and university lecturer who has specialised in working with children with additional learning needs. I gained my Masters degree in Education 2016, followed by a Masters in Psychology in 2026.  Prior to this I achieved post graduate qualifications in the field of special educational needs focusing on language difficulties.

As a lecturer I have created and led undergraduate modules in Additional Learning Needs, Supporting Behaviour and Outdoor Learning.  I am also a qualified Mental Health First Aider and my research interests include the interconnectivity of these areas, especially the role of gamification in the learning environment and the impact of ecotherapy as a support to learning.  

I live in South Wales, on a small holding with my husband, two toddlers and a very bouncy little dog.  In my spare time I am an avid artisan enjoying crafting with glass, clay and natural resources found in our garden and local beach.
