Terms of use and intellectual property

These terms apply to thefreedomapproach.co.uk and to every site in the Yasmin A Darling family. Last updated 17 September 2026.

Who owns what

Trade marks

OurVerse™, The Freedom Approach™, The Maisie Poppins Way™, The Early Years Ecosystem™, the Neurodictionary™, MeMap™ and the Holistic Individual Learning Plan™ are trade marks claimed by Yasmin A Darling Consultancy Ltd. The TM symbol shows the claim. None is a registered trade mark, so the registered symbol is never used on them. You must not use these names, or any name, logo or look likely to be confused with them, without a written licence.
