Still can't believe we pulled off a school trip to New York, this is blowing the kid's minds (although they're now a bit tired after 26,000 steps). Anything really is possible when you Dare To Dream. 🌟

Just had one of the most emotional days of my career. A school trip across the pond is a whole other level unlocked – jet lag, skyscrapers, new friendships & kids seeing a whole new world for the first time. Their faces said it all. This is what Dare to Dream is all about. 💙🌎

It might have taken a long drive through the night in the school minibuses to get there, but taking the kids to see the sights and make some memories in London was absolutely worth it. Can't beat a good school trip.

Found these bad boys hidden in a bag of stuff that has needed sorting for months and honestly think it may be better than finding a tenner.

Very proud to be an ADHD UK ambassador - when I finally got my ADHD diagnosis, everything suddenly made sense. Now, I want to use my voice to increase understanding, raise awareness & help others feel seen. 💜

The classics never go out of style. The things we loved as kids still have magic - our kids just need the chance to discover it.

Very happy with our brand new virtual tour of school - feel free to have a walk around. We love having visitors if the real world is more your thing.

Smashed my Apple Watch last week and turns out to be an absolute blessing - not missing the distracting notifications on my wrist and the feeling of being wired in to the grid.

After months of slowly weaning off anti-depressants & finally being off them (nobody talks about this bit & so much more), it feels like the right time to share that I’m now a proud
Lancashire Mind Ambassador. Hope to use my voice to make a difference & help others. #ItsGoodToTalk

Take note Environment Agency - you know it's come to something when you get an Easter Egg entry like this about the local landfill - STOP THE STINK!!!
April 2, 2025 at 6:37 PM
WE DID IT, FLEETWOOD! 👊🏻

🚨STOP THE STINK!🚨
“It’s not that bad…”
Tell that to the hundreds suffering daily:
😷 Headaches
🫁 Breathing issues
😢 Mental health struggles
🏠 Trapped indoors
700+ spoke out in days.
These stories were sent to the PM this week.
Can we all be wrong? #FleetwoodStink

Our school council got to meet Justin and Ru from The Darkness when when they went on BBC Breakfast. They believe in a thing called love - we believe in justice!

Our amazing school council took a stand on BBC Breakfast this morning to help #StopTheStink! Proud to see our young voices making a big impact - our community deserves clean air! 🌍

Our kids are taking the fight to the BBC sofa & we’re not stopping until we STOP THE STINK! Tomorrow at 7:40am, 3 of our School Council will be on BBC Breakfast, demanding action on the awful smell harming our town. Watch, share & stand with them-the Environment Agency must act.

This working-class lad from Hartlepool got booked to speak in Brighton. Checking in, seeing the view & running on the prom felt a big deal (even rang me mam!) I love it & hopefully help/inspire those who attend- it helps our school budget too! If you need a speaker, let me know.

Didn't feel at all self-conscious on the gates in my PJs and dressing gown for World Book Day...

Belonging and psychological safety go hand in hand and are essential in any workplace - this makes me smile every time I go past it in school. Can't beat a bit of Brené Brown.

Any budding bakers aged 9-15 out there?

Proud dad moment - me & the boy completed our first half marathon together! Something extra special about doing it at Media City, a place already packed with so many amazing memories. Wasn’t the fastest at 2.12 but definitely one to treasure (esp. having not trained that much!)

Media City half-marathon with my boy - let's do this!
