She delivered training programmes for
police officers in human rights and police powers, human rights in the investigation of crime, and professional ethics both in the UK and overseas. She is now a legal adviser for Family Rights Group (FRG) a charity established in 1974 to provide advice and support for families whose children are
involved with social services.

Grade 3-6-Three extremely slim series titles present historical information about the early explorers and settlers in topical one-page text sections flanked by captioned photographs and reproductions, historical maps and documents, information sidebars, and paintings. These are serviceable titles for beginning reports but a broader range of information in a single source can be found in Susan M. Margeson's Viking (DK, 2000) or Kathryn Hinds's The Vikings (Benchmark, 1997).
