Very excited to be speaking at the EPMC community learning day on 9th January.

I've often held off talking about my personal experiences in a professional context, but the state of the system makes it more urgent.

"What does the welfare system take from families"

See you there #edpsychs

I posted this yesterday on LinkedIn and an EP I haven’t yet met sent me a message and suggest we arrange a catch up. Just waiting to sort a date. I’ll be paying it forward and contacting someone else. Why not pay and forward and we can grow the EP community and connect? @edpsy.bsky.social
EPs, feeling a bit like you're working on your own little island? 🏝️ That’s why we brewed up #PositiviTEA ☕️—to bring the EP community together. 👋 Catch up with a colleague (online or in person) 💬 Or say hi to someone new in the EP world? #connection #edpsychs @fionacoley.bsky.social

Does consultation leave EPs ready to meet the challenges we face in 2025? From rampant inequality and austerity to exclusionary politics.

How do we ensure our practice isn't just all talk?
