For anyone working in literacy engagement in schools or community organisations, @literacy-trust.bsky.social and @unibirmingham.bsky.social have published a useful (and fun!) pamphlet on 'Place-themed literacy': nlt.hacdn.org/media/docume... (1/3)

I was honoured to give a keynote paper (on medical care on 17th-century English estates) at 'Servants, Labourers and the Manorial World', a conference of the European Network for Country House & Estate Research, at beautiful Ledreborg in Denmark. A wonderful few days of discussion and exploration!

Hi all! From January, I'm running an 8-week, learning-for-pleasure evening course via the University of York's Centre for Lifelong Learning. It's on Zoom, open to the public and taking bookings now - please share with any friends or family who might be interested! 👇
