What a Lovely two days at the DARCI (Disability, Accessibility and Representation in the Creative Industries) conference last week! It was great to hear about all the access work being undertaken in creative / culture / heritage spaces, and to present my PhD findings in full for the first time!

The busiest first week back from leave! (glasto pics added for good measure) - 2/2

The rest of the week was spent at the QMiP Conference, where Kathryn, Laura and I presented. So much creativity (in topic and methodology) in all the talks I attended which left me feeling very excited (and tired)!!
Three female individuals stood in front of a screen which reads “thank you for listening. Questions?” They smile towards the camera. Three female individuals sat on a non-moving carousel smiling at a camera. The lit-up sign reads “Avalon carousel” in blue and white. It is colourful and the ground platform reads “no war”. The O is a heart.

The busiest first week back from leave! (glasto pics added for good measure) - 1/2

The week started with a PGR conference which I had the pleasure of chairing. It was inspiring to hear all about what fellow PGRs are working on. The day was bookended by two fascinating keynotes. Plus pizza, win-win!

She is reading health and safety notices from a piece of papers and audience members are listening A two female individuals stand at the front of a lecture theatre in front of a screen which reads “including the voices of learning disabled children and young people in research”. Audience members look towards the speakers.

A lovely UG3 at @uoyeducation.bsky.social is exploring how music can be used to support the well-being of autistic CYP.

If you are a parents/carer of an autistic child (age 4-16) please follow this link to the questionnaire: york.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Please share with networks if you can!
Participants needed! Are you a parent/carer of an autistic child aged between 4-16 years? Do they spend time listening to or making music? Would you be willing to spend 15 minutes answering an anonymous online questionnaire about autistic children and wellbeing? As part of my dissertation, I am interested in speaking to parents/carers of autistic children about their perspectives of how music can support the wellbeing of their children. If you are willing to participate please scan this QR code or follow the link below: https://york.qualtrics.com/jfe/ form/SV_2cyFmPpFa86rSBw For more information please contact the researcher by emailing: sm3025@york.ac.uk
