Thank you so much to the UHR judging panel for such wonderful comments and for giving us this award for our Academic Leadership Development Programme! Very grateful for this acknowledgement from our peers Exeter Academic University of Exeter


I cannot WAIT to see University of Exeter campuses come to life from 24th May for the Festival of Discovery - 300+ events and activities to bring people together again. See you there 💚

Huge thank you Helen Scott! For our work to be recognised and to receive such amazing comments has honestly been such a blessing and so encouraging! #verygrateful


"We should all have no fear of using play as a serious part of pedagogy." This was a major point made by the lovely @alisonrjames when speaking (without PowerPoint!) at our UoE Education Incubator funded Monthly Meeting. Read more about it here: theplayfuluniversity.co.uk/monthly-meetin…


Have to thank the wonderful UoE Education Incubator Sarah Dyer Tom Ritchie Lewis Winks for a brilliant writing retreat split over the last 2 days. I actually got the short paper I have been putting off done! So inspiring and just what I needed, thank you!

The writing retreat gift box was such a thoughtful idea! (Even though my kids got to the sweets before I could! 🤨🙄😂). Such a great group to spend the time and share ideas with too UoE Education Incubator

The husband Gavin Button has adopted a #gamification approach to getting the kids dressed this morning! As the #seriousPlay practitioner in the house I’m thinking... “why didn’t I think of that?!” I’m now off to produce a leaderboard, countdown clock & prizes!



With today’s session on #resilience, I took the class #outside 🌳🍃 We used Lego play techniques to identify personal values & what brings us joy, to create strategies for greater #wellbeing. Great time of reflection & hope 🌈 University of Exeter #festivalofDiscovery #play #LSP
