"The projects Emma has worked on have been varied and numerous, mainly looking at the provision of health interventions for young people with complex medical needs in school and EHCP processes. Emma is an expert in this field and she has a deep and wide-ranging knowledge that she has used to support us when there have been conflicts but also to challenge our thinking around our own practice. I have always found her to be quick and easy to communicate with and an absolute professional with bags of integrity. It is always a pleasure to work with her and you know that you will get a fantastic outcome.”
