2 year anniversary of my life-changing stroke. So much has changed and so many people treat me differently. I’m still me but very few people see that. I have a unique insight into disability but people see what I can’t do rather than what I can. Remember to be kind people. X

A very productive day with Wg Cdr Lou Hall getting ready for the muster tomorrow and developing the new FTF mental health course. Looking forward to delivering it myself very soon. RAFAC Mental Health

So proud of the number of badges cadets have achieved. Thank you to @InskipCadetCentre for hosting us after we had to leave RAF Valley.

Watching Derren Brown in Hanley with daughter Ellie. Just amazing. Happy 18th Ellie! Xx

A great reason to walk but most importantly a better reason to talk. They have a rest day today but take a look at the route and go a offer support if you can. RAFAC Mental Health 3dadswalking.uk/the-2022-route

@WhistleblowingT When OFSTED came in they asked to be taken to the hardest teacher. I said it was me and I had to fight the HMI in the playground whilst all the other inspectors stood round in a circle chanting “fight” until Amanda Spielman came and broke it up. I got outstanding for my jab.
