Tanya Byron to give free public lecture in York

Two psychologists who are experts on parenting are giving free public lectures in York next month.

Both lectures take place at the Royal York Hotel (next to the railway station) and form part of the Annual Conference of the British Psychological Society's Division of Clinical Psychology.

On Wednesday 4 December (1700-1800) Professor Matt Sanders from the University of Queensland will speak on “What Makes Children Happy and Successful”.

Professor Sanders is the founder of the innovative and effective Triple P Positive Parenting Programme. In recognition of his work, he was made Queenslander of the Year by the state government in 2007.

Professor Sanders’ lecture is free to attend. You can just turn up on the day, but it would be a great help if you could register your intention to attend in advance.

On Friday 6 December (1530-1630) Professor Tanya Byron, well known for presenting television shows including “The House of Tiny Tearaways”, “Am I Normal?” and “Bedtime Live”, will speak on “The Trouble with Kids”.

Again, this lecture is free to attend and you can just turn up on the day, but it would be a great help if you could register your intention to attend.
