Here's what I've learned 1st hand from great leaders

1. Embrace #livesimply as a liberation tool
2. Embed #indigenousknowledge to inform creative pedagogies
3. Coach talent informed by the 'intent-behaviour gap' phenomenon
4. Promote embodied storytelling to advocate for change

Dear Harehills,
I pray for peace and calm on your streets tonight.

I hope families impacted by the tension get the support they need

Thank you @alexsobel for leading with a calm voice tonight to dampen the words of hatred from those who should know better

We are very proud the Deputy Prime Minster @AngelaRayner has been an advocate of British Sign Language (BSL) having learnt BSL. Now it’s time to ensure BSL is placed in every deaf child’s hands because the system doesn’t offer free BSL to parents of deaf children #BSLinOurHands

Today we say goodbye to Rob Burrow CBE - a rugby league legend whose legacy on and off the pitch will live long in our memory.

A true inspiration and tireless champion for others living with motor neurone disease.

Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones today.

My warmest congratulations to our new Prime Minister Sir @Keir_Starmer, and my prayers for you and your family as you take on this role of great responsibility for our country. I thank @RishiSunak and the outgoing Government for their service.
