AOIFE O’HIGGINs
I have been an enthusiastic member of Project PT since August 2022. In between gym sessions, I parent two fun loving kids with Mike (also a Project PT fan), I try to play Roller Derby and I love to get out and about in East Oxford.
I am also Director of Evidence at Foundations: the What Works Centre for Children and Families. Foundations generates and champions actionable evidence that improves services to support vulnerable children and families. I lead Foundations' ambitious portfolio of evidence generation projects, which include evaluations of Family Group Conferencing, Domestic Abuse programmes, and multi-agency models of practice. Our projects are driven by rigour in design and delivery, as well as by the stories and experiences of those who receive and deliver social work interventions, including children and young people with care experience, their families, carers and the professionals supporting them.
