I co-authored a chapter with social work academics Rachel Hughes and Brian Callan examining how artistic and creative experience can enhance the work of social care practitioners supporting young refugees and asylum seekers in London. The material for the research emerged from my curatorial work for New Town Culture with artist Albert Potrony and the Corporate Parenting Team in the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham.
