Last Friday I attended Mindspace Mayo’s 10-year anniversary - marking a decade of supporting youth mental health in the West of Ireland. The event also launched an independent evaluation report which I was fortunate to work on with Prof Gary Donohoe and Dr Caroline Heary. @uniofgalway.bsky.social

Links in the posts which follow - reply to be added.
And if you're in the intersecting areas, especially the middle bit, and we don't know each other already - do say hello 😊

Life got busy and I forgot about my Bluesky profile. So nice to log in after a few months and see so many familiar faces.
Going to try harder to post and interact here. It's so much more positive than Twitter. 😊

Bluesky is opening to the public today and taking a step toward federation. I talked to CEO @jay.bsky.team & @rose.bsky.team about how they got here and what’s next. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...
