Today we took our Young Leaders to the @ncmme.bsky.social for their training sesh. Shout out to Rob, our guide, who spoke about education through the pits, on the job training, identity (& much more).

There is still plenty of time to get yourself booked onto our event at the National Coal Mining Museum on Saturday... here's a sneak preview of the events for the day 👀

There's some serious thought going into Finn's next word...

Someone got himself back on the nice list with a good report card from his dog walker 🐾🧑‍🎄🐾

Anyone that knows me knows how much I love Barnsley so it's been a pleasure to be at Barnsley College today delivering an Outreach session on the suite of Education degrees at @hudunipress.bsky.social (plus VIP parking...big thanks to BC for having us).

Right it's officially Christmas for us 🎄🐾🎄

Late one last night with the Young Leaders planning our event at the National Coal Mining Museum. Every time I meet them, their drive, vision, and spirit of inquiry, (and of course their wit cos they're from Barnsley) gives me hope and the will to keep going and keep researching ✊

Come join us at the National Coal Mining Museum for our Youth led event 📢📢

The exhibition celebrates the power of youth voice through vibrant street art. It explores lads' experiences of education, employment, and opportunity in the former coalfields of Barnsley.

Someone enjoyed a snow day ❄️

Finn's settled into his group dog walks now (I feel like a proud mum 🐾)

My favourite time of the year... graduation time 🎓🎓
