Thrilled to share this article, published today for a special edition edited by Celia Whitchurch - a collaborative venture with two peers for whom I have so much respect, and with whom it was an honour to write. @kellyvere @c_verney

Thrilled to be able to share this paper, the culmination of a four year collaborative partnership with former student Jesney Swift. The work of Jesney and their peers has shaped the role of student voice in the School of CLAS @UniofNottingham .

I have just written this: "While this will not be a book about broader UK policy, nor about the various merits of one data set versus another". Yes. There is a book. Watch this space.

Amazing event last week University of Nottingham, discussing wellbeing and the menopause and the education needed for all of us to support and understand the women in our lives. Honoured to be on the final panel, sharing my own experiences and challenges @UniofNottingham @CLASUoN.

Great day today at #NEON2024 with plenty of provocations in keynotes and sessions, and positive engagement with our presentation about the Professional Accreditation Scheme for WP/WA staff

Great day @AbertayUni for day one of the @EANAccess conference. Super questions and level of engagement in our workshop. Also lovely to be in the company of @ScappScot colleagues ❤️.

Thank you @FlyingFlowersUK and/or @DPDUK3 for completely messing up a lovely surprise for a valued colleague today. A refund does not make up for not being able to give them the send-off they deserve. Terrible service.

Travelling to Dundee @AbertayUni for the @EANAccess New Beginnings for European Access conference to talk about partnership work to recognise and value Widening Participation professionals with @ScappScot.

Book contract signed. Gulp.
