Verbatim
“In a phone call you won't see a punch hole in a door or the sadness on a mother's face, you won't see that the baby's crying and the mum is disengaged and doesn't know what to do”
“If someone is experiencing domestic violence, is unable to heat their home or doesn't have enough food they won't always tell you that outright - we can observe and hear.”

Recent UK press coverage of their topics, not necessarily citing them directly.
Professors, researchers and think-tank analysts quoted on the strength of their research rather than a clinical role. Citations are counted by an automated scan of UK press coverage and may be incomplete. Roles, biographies and contact details are researched and human-reviewed before they appear here; anything not yet reviewed is simply absent rather than shown unverified.
