- Summary:
- Estelle Morris meets Camila Batmanghelidjh, founder and director of Kids Company, the innovative charity offering emotional and educational support to vulnerable young people. Camila talks candidly about her own life, her struggles to understand and overcome dyslexia, and what it was like in the early days of establishing the inner-city charity. She describes the current work and ethos of Kids Company, its place beside the education system and within society as a whole. A trained psychotherapist, Camila also discusses the issue of mental health in challenging children, and the scientific advances which are shaping the theraputic support the charity provides. This lively interview makes fascinating viewing, and gives an inspired insight into this remarkable woman and her philosophy.
