Heather Taylor

Heather Taylor is a wife, mother and ‘children’s champion’.

She was born and reared in Enniskillen, Co Fermanagh, N Ireland.

Up until 2007 she describes her life as sometimes full, sometimes half empty. Ups and downs like everyone else but pretty ok really.

Heather is an ex-teacher  –  but not by choice.

Heather, who was head of department of a service for children with social, emotional and behavioural difficulties, suffered a massive blow to her 31 year career when she was falsely accused of slapping a pupil.

She suffered severe reactive depression and anxiety as a result of the allegation.

On her journey to kick thoroughly debilitating depression Heather made a plan to write about her career and the down turn it took.

She always wanted to write and had one piece published, but up until now only had time to dream, not to do. Now she has had both the time and the motivation to write her first book, a true account of her career and the traumatic end to her beloved teaching.
