Biography
I graduated in 1991 with a BScEcon(Hons) in Politics from the University College of Wales, Aberystwyth. Since then I have been employed in various roles within Education and Adult Social Services. In 2019 I completed a part-time Open University MA in History and was awarded ESRC funding for a NWSSDTP CASE Studentship at Keele. Working in collaboration with the Staffordshire Archives and Heritage Service on their Wellcome Trust funded Asylums Project, I am currently exploring the history of mental health care in the Asylums at Stafford, Burntwood and Cheddleton. Information regarding the project is available on the blog https://staffordshireasylumrecords.wordpress.com/.
