Lead Psychologist for Maggie's requests books for every centre

Lesley Howells in the Consultant Clinical Psychologist and Lead Psychologist for Maggie's (UK), and Lead Psychologist for the Better Together Collaboration for children and families with bone marrow failure.
Lesley has asked for books for every Maggie's Centre in the UK, and for others too. In her opinion, 'We need more Worry Doll stories!".

Here's her review:

"What an extraordinary gift for parents, teachers, therapists...in fact anyone alongside a child and their family caught in the midst of uncertainty and changes beyond their control. Immediately I imagined countless children (and adults!) who I know would benefit from being introduced to this story, which is a gloriously rich way of building resilience and a psychologically adaptive approach to potentially traumatic change, but also in sharing the concept of the Worry Doll, and the idea that we all can be a Worry Doll for others, and also that Worry Dolls can be within trusted people around us."
