[Dr Áine Rose Kelly @AineRoseKelly]

When I was in care teachers often told me I was useless & not clever enough to go to uni. But yesterday I passed my doctoral degree & became Dr Kelly! Never let anyone tell you you aren't good enough! Thank you @NikkiLukePsych @ReesCentre @wellcometrust for believing in me! 🎓🥰

Bury Council is believed to be one of the first local authorities in England to ringfence homes specifically for care leavers https://t.co/KuDNa3BfUr

We are working with @NAVSH_UK and #virtualschools to recruit #careleavers 18-25 years old to participate in our #research study. We are still recruiting! Please view our video📽️ here https://t.co/X9MZTMDTqX

As foster dads, it's (rightly) expected that we regularly take our children to the dentist.

Good dental health is really important for children in care.

Our foster girl has been registered with our NHS dentist for years but now we're told that they can no longer see her.

BREAKING: CAMBRIDGESHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL PASS PROTECTED CHARACTERISTICS MOTION

Check this speech out by #CEP @Elle_Johnson19

"Recognising that this group is disadvantaged is one thing. But recognising that this group is also discriminated against, is another.

Whilst we cannot undo the disadvantage, and take away this trauma, ensuring these children are considered and prevented from further discrimination when it comes to policy and decision-making, is a positive starting point for change.

It is a wonder that this action has not been taken already."

Thank you @brygoodliffe cross party support @CambsLibDems @CambsLabour @SteveCount

Christmas can be such a difficult time for care-experienced young people. In the #CostOfLivingCrisis we thought about care-experienced mothers during this festive season! @KimEmenike and I would like to create 100 Christmas hampers for 5 local authorities and we need your help!

Earlier this year Julie Selwyn and I had the great opportunity to share some of the learning from the #BrightSpotsProgramme at an international well-being conference in Oxford. Our presentation is now available online. https://t.co/IlshyqXkB5

⏰ In case you missed it... I'm seeking care-experienced academics in the UK to complete a short online questionnaire and, if willing, to be interviewed about their career pathway. Link to questionnaire: https://t.co/ptqnsMdfMD

[Dr Jen Chesters @jen_chesters]

She has managed the kind of challenges I would not wish upon anyone.
But she is no-one's #Token or #InspirationPorn
She is a 100% solid gold legend of a researcher and she has already changed so many lives. 4/5

If anyone does have that bit of Aine's talk - please DM me.
Anyway
I sincerely believe that @AineRoseKelly represents the change that needs to keep happening at #OxfordUniversity. 3/5

[Dr Jen Chesters @jen_chesters]

apologies for the heckling & losing control of the camera & videoing my knee!
So excited that I thought I'd turned the camera off for my interruption, & back on for Aine's much more coherent explanation of the Christmas Dinners for #CareLeavers, that she's organised! 2/5

[Dr Áine Rose Kelly @AineRoseKelly]

@jen_chesters @ReesCentre @OxfordDeptofEd @artisjusta_word @5742Days 🥰 Thank you! I guess graduation isn’t complete without someone making you stay on stage!

[Dr Áine Rose Kelly @AineRoseKelly]

Biggest lesson I learnt as a care kid doing my PhD at Oxford is that I’m surrounded by people who care about me & I don’t need a biological family. Thank you @greentempleton for making our graduation so special and for supporting me for so long with @ReesCentre & @OxfordDeptofEd

[Dr Jen Chesters @jen_chesters]

Saturday was such a special day. My wonderful friend Dr @AineRoseKelly graduated with her DPhil (that's a PhD to the rest of us - haha) from #OxfordUniversity. We had a lovely day celebrating at @greentempleton
college. Here is Aine talking about her project
