Garden of Light

I am married with 2 grown up children and two beautiful grandchildren. I live in North Wales close to the mountains and open countryside but not too far away from a little retail therapy from time to time.

I enjoy reading, walking, crafts, gardening, my two unruly dogs, people and life in general. Just invested in 2 VW campervans and am looking forward to a little escapism with them.

While the internet is a wonderful thing for sharing information I will try to keep this site brief and informative as my work in involvement continues.

Currently writing up my PhD on Service User Involvement in Mental Health Care, a contentious issue that I feel passionate about and is fascinating to explore. Just hope it will be a fascinating read when it is finished.

I will add information to this site as I find or create it.
