In the episode we speak to Dr Duncan Gillard, an Educational Psychologist who is using evidence informed approaches to promote the well-being of children and young people in his work.
We discussed DNA-V (the Acceptance and Commitment model for youth) and how this has been adapted to universal, targeted and more specialist levels for use in schools. We discuss how important it is for interventions in school to be evidence based and evidence informed and how this has been proven for the Connect Curriculum and other DNA-V based projects.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
