Summary

Sue Walker is the founder and director of Kids London, one of the UK's most established children's model agencies. With decades of experience working closely with young talent, families and casting teams, Sue has built her career around trust, responsibility and long-term thinking within the children's modelling industry. In this episode, Sure reflects on how children's modelling has evolved over time and the increasing awareness around safeguarding and wellbeing. She talks openly about the responsibility agencies carry when representing young people, the importance of clear boundaries, and why children cannot and should not be treated like small adults. Sue discusses the role of parents, agents and clients in protecting children, the realities of working within a commercial industry, and why saying no can be just as important as saying yes. She also shares her perspective on responsible representation, longevity and why doing things properly, with the child's wellbeing at the centre, matters more than ever. www.businessofmodelling.co.uk www.kidslondonltd.com Hosted on Acast.
