Joey

I have three children: Bea, Laurie and Joey.  

Joey has severe learning disabilities and intractable epilepsy.  

KIDS

I'm proud and honoured to be the Chair of KIDS (www.kids.org.uk), an outstanding national charity which provides a wide range of help and services to disabled young people and their families.

 

Charity and Campaigning

I campaign for an improvement in the way that people with Learning Disabilities are treated and represented in culture and the media.

I do what I can to help MENCAP and the Brandon Trust, among others.

I'm also the Patron of Dramatise, a charity which offers drama classes and workshops to young people with disabilities.

I've written various articles on the experience of being Joey's father.
