So much history on the @universityofleeds.bsky.social campus and much of it brilliantly navigated by heritage corner for Black History Month. Joe Williams is an inspiration. Here he is outside my school of PCI. A bonus to walk round with @bethjohnsontv.bsky.social

Total privilege to work with students at St John Fisher in Harrogate today. What a brilliant set of students. And Stanislavsky still has something to say!

I lost my dad to dementia last October. I had written a poem before he died which tried to evoke some of our experiences and I too focused on cutlery
