Project Work

In 2003 as part of his MA Dissertation Greg evaluated a Solution Focused Project based in a Bradford Secondary School that addressed the “unwanted behaviours” displayed by pupils.

From Sept 2005 to February 2006 Greg acted as Consultant Trainer for a project with Leeds Mental Health Trust where he provided solution focused training, supervision and consultancy for staff working on Adult Acute In-Patient Wards.
