Loved learning about brilliant work done by @djrgrey.bsky.social and @katrinanavickas.bsky.social at #HertsImpactSymposium2025 today. New additions to my vocabulary: “baby farm” and “settlement house”.

Our first session of the day was entitled ‘From Barriers to Bridges: The Journey to Social Change’, and we heard from four academics about everything from filmmaking in prisons to the impact of forest school on pupils with SEND.

Our second session was entitled ‘Walking and Talking: Building Communities on the Road to Impact’. Five academics shared impact projects on everything from a podcast about close reading literature to the experiences of older male carers.

YES! "Session Zero would be the part at the very beginning of the project, where everyone involved shared their hopes and aspirations for the study, as well as discussing things they might prefer not to discuss, or boundaries they want to set" @elspethma.bsky.social @louca-mai.bsky.social

A beautiful weekend full of sunshine, flowers and some baby lambs 🌞🌸🌷🐑.
Yesterday was 20 years since my mother died so this mothering Sunday was tinged with sadness, but I'm so glad I could fill it with things she (and I) loved - including afternoon tea 💞
