**Also, does anyone have any good media links for sharing and demoing these lovely robots?** Sharing on Blue Peter would be a childhood dream fulfilled, but I also interested in programs or channels with adult reach, maybe with a focus on technology? Please message if you do!

Children with SEN and their parents do so much to make school work for them. The system is creaking and in many cases already failing. Cutting the number of kids that can access to the specialist support they NEED f-ing sucks as a strategy. https://t.co/7ljpWEkMhx

I tried to write a blog for @WWconsortium about why it's important for artists to make work about the environment (it turns out I don't!). This is instead about why I think public artwork has power in these terrifying times. Let me know if you think about this non-stop too...
Our co-founder Emma Powell has written about creating artwork in the Climate Crisis for @WWconsortium blog. It may not be super Christmassy, but there is some hope and celebration of positive action. Have a read and let us know what you think 👇 https://t.co/Ppeecrwii1
