Just attended a fantastic training session on supporting Student Sex Workers. I'd urge all HE Support Staff to look into the research and resources surrounding this- Support For Student Sex Workers and National Ugly Mugs are a good place to start.

If you want to take steps to improve your overall health in 2022 that’s wonderful… just one reminder if I may. STOP CONFUSING HEALTH WITH WEIGHT LOSS. They are not the same thing. Tell the fear-mongering, shame-inducing, self-esteem abusing charlatans to get in the bin.

Everyone at the University can access Togetherall – an online ‘safe space’ community monitored by trained clinicians, where staff and students can have confidential, anonymous conversations.

Today we’re profiling some of our great women who work in advanced materials, biotechnology, cancer, energy and global inequalities research. #BreaktheBias #IWD2022
