Thanks @midspolthought for the chance to come and talk @NottsPolitics today for the first time since studying here. Looking forward to talking gender, public spheres and history of political thought!
@rachaelcatriona @profsarahchilds @barconventyork Thanks Rachael - so nice to hear from you! Def stand by the fact that careers are long allowing time for different chapters. Really hope all well with you x

Yesterday’s event was really wonderful though as colleagues say a lot of hard graft! Team work got us there 🌟 Inspiring content that ranged from performance art to memoir and film. My paper felt very trad in comparison but enjoyed the opportunity nonetheless!
We are so excited to meet you all tomorrow! Please check your emails for final details and a full event schedule. And remember to dress cool if you’re attending in-person, as it’s set to be another hot day.
