I joined the Royal Parks Foundation in July 2011 as Education Manager. My role is to develop and co-ordinate the education programme at the brand new Isis Education Centre at The LookOut in Hyde Park. This covers everything from devising sessions for schools, managing the family and adult learning programmes, to recruiting and supporting the Isis Volunteers.

My favourite Park? It’s really hard deciding. I’ve fallen head over heels in love with Hyde Park since working here. However I think Regent’s Park still is my favourite as I’ve just spent so much time there.

Which Park creature would I be? I’d probably cheat and say a Black and White Ruffed Lemur from London Zoo. They just look so comfy with their tail wrapped around their body and they’re kind of found in Regent's Park...

Favourite fact about the Parks? I love the fact there are ferrets hidden on an island in one of the Parks.
