Social workers change lives: inspiring stories from the Choose Social Work campaign

Dr. h.c. Jenny Molloy, consultant, Trevi House patron, author, trainer and motivational speaker. Jenny proudly identifies as a care leaver and is the author of her stories, Hackney Child and Tainted Love, written under her alias, Hope Daniels. Jenny spent most of her childhood in care and is now a married mother, grandmother and, of course, a care leaver. As a child, Jenny was under the care of Hackney social services and was known as a ‘Hackney Child’, hence the title of her first book. Jenny’s final book, Neglected, is written under her real name, Jenny Molloy, and shares stories of love and hope within the care system – a message Jenny is passionate about. Jenny works extensively with local authorities across the country, as well as working with Ofsted, the Department for Education, Frontline and higher education institutions. Jenny received an honorary doctorate from Huddersfield University for her service to vulnerable children and families.
