- Wonderful to be joined by @dawnbowden.bsky.social today for an introduction to the @stresswales.bsky.social Trauma-informed Wales TiPSS training. Thank you Minister for your support for this work, and for children who have experienced trauma and adversity in their lives both in and out of care.
- Back from a really interesting knowledge exchange on migrant health organised by WHO Europe. Lots to bring back to the uk ( and managed to see a little bit of Athens)
- Poignant bookshelf moment....if I took a picture of the whole shelf .....
- Just a girl and a vicar ...for anyone who knows him we could add 'and' ad infinitum....let's try humanitarian, inspiration and still someone who can end a conversation and exit like noone else 😂 lovely to bump into a man who strives or peace with every fibre.
- What an emotional day. I have supported Remembering Srebrenica as long as it has existed. In 1999 I did my masters in international relations on media reporting of women's experiences in Srebrenica. It had only just happened. Fast forward. Goodness. What a sobering day
- What a beautiful morning....
- Happy St David's Day....
- Important discussions around the experience of racial trauma in Wales in Cardiff this week. Will be spending this weekend considering the learning and how the work we are doing with ACE Hub Wales and Trauma-informed Wales will support real change together
- Lighter evenings mean later walks are also an option when we can't fit it in first thing 🥰
- @stresswales.bsky.social great to be with you today at your conference to talk about how we all work together to understand what a trauma and ACE informed NHS might look like. 45 mins of brilliant discussion about who, what and how we do this building persons and inclusive of all staff.
- It's this kind of morning...
- Working hard to pay for their U13s tour.....when your little boy is just disappearing in front of your eyes....but transforming into a wonderful, kind young man ❤️
- Trauma-informed Wales is about all of us living the ethos we espouse. Important to take time out for relational work and who knew Japanese Knotweedclukd provoke such important discussions! Listening, hearing, co-creating is the key. Finding space to do this. Amongst clinical practice, deadlines..❤️
- Wasn't sure what to make of this at first. Ollie thoroughly enjoyed and it certainly provoked a very poignant conversation on the way home
- Great to be at the Private Law Pathfinder induction event today to talk about trauma-informed practice in the family justice system. Important work to improve how how we support practitioners, and people experiencing this process.
- When the local band play your favourite song unrehearsed. ...very moved and will get my fa la la la s on....
- What an inspiring first session at Ty Pawb in Wrexham at our Trauma-informed Wales road map workshop. We discussed how we turn what we know into things that will progress our ambition for a social movement. Thanks everyone. Second session tomorrow !
- Blue sky on....well Blue Sky!
- We have a local crochet fairy that brings smiles to the village. Happy St Dwynwen's Day !
