Forgot my Twitter password... after spending a rainy day in lockdown sorting out my digital life, i'm back. Sorry for any tweets/messages i've missed 😬
Very emotional last week at Hallam, I have loved my time here and have had the pleasure of working with so many hardworking and dedicated colleagues and friends... SHU ya later (see what I did there!?)
Please read the report of the Care Experienced Conference launched today which complements and amplifies the voice of children in care. The care system will only get better if we listen to children & those who have experienced care. Thank you. https://t.co/F792MjOAC6
If you always see me tweeing about #SHUProgress and have wondered what I am talking about, I would recommend watching this short video? It also features one of our amazing former SHU Progress students, who I am very proud of 😌
SHU Progress provides support for applicants whose personal circumstances might mean that there are barriers to going to university. #SHUProgress#ApplicantSupport#HEJourney

Exciting news! We're making a podcast for the festive season & we're looking for ppl of all ages/backgrounds who are estranged from family to take part! If you'd be happy to talk about your story & help others feel less alone, please fill in this survey: https://t.co/gswXgwiJdn
If you are a care leaver, carer or estranged student you can also come and speak to my colleagues and I about the support we offer. We will be based on the "SHU Progress applicant support stand" at City Campus!

@KCLWP "...finding out that actually the thing that I was a bit worried about bringing to university was an asset"
Such an inspiring and positive video!
Absolutely! Our research found that care experienced students often arrived at uni on their own, without any access to funding https://t.co/VLvWP0c0Tk #ECLCM#CareLeaversNeedSupprt#WideningParticipation
🚨 Arriving this weekend? Sheffield's roads will be very busy at times, due to university traffic, a @swfc home game (Saturday pm) and the #Sheffield10k race (Sunday am). Get advice on planning your journey here 👉 https://t.co/g00l38Br83
I volunteered to organise the first ever Sheffield Christmas Dinner and would strongly recommend the project to anyone. If you have any questions, let me know!

Thank you to @SHU_StEER for organising a very insightful seminar on equity across the Australian university student life cycle. Every day is a school day!
@beccablandish@ucas_online Yes! We've been trailing other ways to identify estranged students as this year we have a question on our open day registration form which sign posts students to our support stand. We've also improved our systems and processes which we use to administer (1/2)
