And that's a wrap! Our fabulous host @melin_edo is giving thank yous to everyone involved in making this event happen - and doesn't she look incredible?!

When asked whether she minds if other copy her tile idea: If it makes others happy, then do it! She didn't invent the tile or quotes, so it's all fair game ✌ @tashwillcocks #CMripple

Top tip: make the time everyday to do a ritual for yourself, even if it's just sitting down with a cup of coffee 😌 or doing squats while you brush your teeth! @tashwillcocks #CMripple

Tash started writing positive quotes/thoughtful Qs like "let it hurt then let it go" and "how do you feel?" on ceramic tiles and leaving them around Manchester - they created a ripple on social media and helped create little moments of hope and joy 🌞 @tashwillcocks #CMripple

Top tip, use #CamelCase - make sure to capitalise every word in your hash tags, it's more accessible for screen readers, and avoids awkward situations like #susanalbumparty... @tashwillcocks #CMripple

It's a great time to be over 40 in the design industry - empathy and life experiences/knowledge are so valuable in the world of design! *It's time to end age segregation" 💪 @tashwillcocks #CMripple
