Interested in doing an online Mental Health First Aid course to help further my understanding (especially for work) but just found out that I can't access Government funding for this because I'm based in South Yorkshire 😔

Has anyone else come across this issue? I'm really disappointed!

Today is #IDPWD2024 it's a day to recognise + celebrate diversity. There is still a long way to go until we gain complete equality, but remember please don't actively avoid people with disabilities, or patronise, instead speak to us, include us within your lives. Be kind, always!

Last night was one of my favourite gig experiences ever - and not just because I got to see Sleep Token.

I sat waiting for the support act, playing Pokémon White - keeping myself entertained, y'know?

Next thing you know, I had a crowd of about ten people cheering me on towards my 8th gym badge 🥇

Alt: A GIF of Zekrom, a legendary Pokémon from the Pokémon White game, doing a funny dance. Zekrom has piercing red eyes and dark grey to black skin that seems to be armor-like. Zekrom also has a large, generator-like tail and long mane that ends in a tip, which occasionally glows in an iridescent blue color. It also has a set of small black wings behind its three-clawed arms.

"Often the most vile abuse comes in the replies to lengthy threads, where discourse seems to get out of hand.

"Why would I continue to put myself through this?"

Such a great and different take on how to show and share a research project, with a fantastic range of submissions too.

Tired of Spinning Plates is about family carers, with an online exhibition space - link below - where people shared their experiences.

#carer #disability #siblings #academia
Delighted to share the work on #SpinningPlates #Coproduction here.

You can see the teaching slides here: docs.google.com/presentation...

You can check out the project here: sites.google.com/sheffield.ac...

Fab work! Amazing what can be gained when you actually ask children and young people what they'd like to learn about and work with them to put something together.

Reminds me of this from a couple of years back: www.sheffield.ac.uk/education/re...

Had more lovely interactions + organic follows in a week on this platform than I've had in years in the other place 🥰

I'll try to keep this profile updated as much as I can - so if you're interested in #accessibility, #digital, #DisabilityStudies, #filmmaking and/or #education, come say hi! 😊

Excited to present with Prof Jennifer Rowsell at Congreso Paraguayo de Lingüística Aplicada (CONPLA) 2024 on Thurs!

We'll be discussing our paper, 'What sits, what sticks: moving into lived, disruptive co-produced filmmaking practices in literacy classrooms'.

Feeling for all those being encouraged to take voluntary severance at Sheff Uni. I'm disappointed, and I'm angry.

To badly paraphrase something said at the joint unions' campus meeting last week: we are the University. We're losing so many talented and kind colleagues 💔

12 years ago, I wasn't sure I'd get into Sheff Uni as a student.
