      None at the moment! Psychology can be very important for shaping how politicians make decisions (like what is the best education programme for teenagers or how should we tackle knife crime). There are some psychologists who have close ties to Westminster, which is great and hopefully one day I will be one of them 🙂

      ‘Power’ is a strong word, but I am very lucky to be in an organisation that has close ties with government; it means that the work we do can have real impact.
