Thank you @akemnji for making sure your name was pronounced correctly on @BBCNews this am. My name is often butchered and misspelled and it gets exhausting to feel like you need to apologise for asking people to say or spell your name right. It's no small thing.

@CreativeFuseNE @ahrcpress @UKRI_News Truly wonderful to see the broad impact we have when we work together... @CreativeFuseNE has always been a standard-bearer with these types of collaboration. <3

Exciting Symposium on Mar 1 from @capapiecreative @CreativeFuseNE and @durham_uni about all things Artist-Researcher Collaboration. Exciting chance for creatives and researchers to come together, dream, and do... https://t.co/nFRj1mhEtO

@CreativeFuseNE @BF_Armstrong @DUBusSchool @durham_uni I know what you mean! In fact, if the prevailing view is that we are 'less valuable' to our economy than other industries, then I'd like to see proof that defunding or devaluing our sector is going to somehow be better for our economy. Show me the proof.

[Ladan Cockshut @LadanCockshut]

Thrilled to be on this podcast from @BF_Armstrong, a dynamic researcher making the point for why we need A&H. I loved being on it, but am sad that we're in a place where a podcast like this is even needed. @CreativeFuseNE @DUBusSchool @durham_uni

@jessj_hunt I love this. To me that's the way I see County Durham... I've got so many weird and old maps of the county that show how much has changed including one where there's a tiny bit of the top of Northumberland (Holy Isle, right up to Berwick) which was considered part of Durham.
