Sessions are designed to be engaging, accessible and grounded in practice.

"Paul spoke at a recent conference for foster carers and adopters and I thought he was fantastic. Given the subject matter of identity, in particular in relation to looked after/adopted children, I was impressed by Paul’s openness about his own childhood experiences. Overall I would say Paul is personable and engaging and I’d recommend him as a speaker."
