Winnicott (1896-1971), the distinguished English paediatrician, child psychiatrist and psychoanalyst.'To that end, it has established the Winnicott Clinic Senior Research Fellowship in Psychotherapy and the Donald Winnicott Memorial Lecture, an annual event designed for a wide audience of professionals and others involved with children. These lectures focus upon a specific topic, arising from Winnicott's life and ideas, in terms of relevance for twenty-first century living.'- Eric Koops, LVO Chairman of the Trustees, The Winnicott Clinic of Psychotherapy
