ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) Centre, Glasgow
Many of the issues that affect us across the lifespan, even into adulthood, have their origin in childhood. Children who suffer difficult early experiences, such as illness, neurodevelopmental problems, neglect or abuse can develop mental health problems that can burden them throughout their lives, holding them back in social development, family life, education, the work place, and even their physical health. Our research, clinical work and teaching aims to understand and address this. The team is closely allied to the Gillberg Neuropsychiatry Centre.

From growing up in care and coming, as an adult, to work with those from the care sector I've seen some amazing and interesting things, people and organisations. As such I have decided to build a website to house some of these discussions, innovations, organisations and ideas. I'm really keen to see what you think of the site and look forward to growing ideas and collaborations.
