Proud to host a 2-day writing & wellbeing retreat this week for 14 students who are all parents or carers, thanks to funding from @SWDTP. After 2 action-packed days of writing, walking, eating, sauna, yoga and even a dip in the sea, we left with new motivation and new friends :)

Just chaired a thought-provoking panel on children and young people with disabilities/SEN. Across countries and contexts, all presenters emphasized the crucial need to enhance efforts that encourage these children to express their views both in practice and research.#ICFC2025

Enjoyed some fascinating panel sessions today #ICFC2025. Wide-ranging research based in Africa, Brazil, Kerala, Norway and England introduced me to the varied experiences of children and young people who show such strength in marginalised circumstances.

What an inspiring keynote by Professor Tatek Abebe on the last day of #ICFC2025. A passionate and powerful journey through children as commons and commoners, collective existence, and communing care. We also experienced moving music activism for regenerative futures.
