The Boy Who Loved Books: A Memoir

John Sutherland

2007

Memoir of British academic and literary critic, John Sutherland, who was in kinship care as a child.

Children and young people in social care, and those who have left, are often subject to stigmatisation and discrimination. Being stigmatised and discriminated against can impact negatively on mental health and wellbeing not only during the care experience but often for many years after too. The project aims to contribute towards changing community attitudes towards care experienced people as a group. See glossary HERE
