Charlotte Allison - United Kingdom

Hi everyone, my name is Charlotte, I’m 25 years old and I’m from Hull, Yorkshire, England. I studied at the University of Hull from 2015-2018 for my BA in Education and Early Childhood and then again for my Masters in Education and Early Childhood. My interests include informal learning environments and children’s well-being. I now work at a children’s play centre in Hull, where children can use their imaginations to take on different roles through play such as a vet, firefighter, grocer using toys and outfits. We have a little cafe area where we provide refreshments for our visitors, we also do special events, birthday parties and I organise sensory workshops for children under the age of 2.

also run Being Well Education which is digital platform that highlights the importance of children’s well-being, looking at Mental Health, Physical Health, Kindness, Sustainability, Creative Activities, An Interview With and World Festivals. As a result of developing Being Well and supporting online content in my job, I have developed an awareness in the importance of using Social Media in a positive way and ways to provide content for this.
My interest in Climate Change and Sustainability began a few years ago when I was at University and became more aware of the climate crisis as a result of hearing from individuals in the community speaking out. I think just getting older and becoming more aware through my own research such as through news and social media has played a role in my interest too. I now try to make better choices for the environment, including using reusable water bottles and make up cleansing cloths, not consuming as many goods when they aren’t needed, signing policies for change and listening to science and environmental activities.
