Super afternoon at the SuPA awards!

Today we celebrate superstar students during our annual Sunderland Professional Awards (SuPA). 👏
This is an accolade given to students who participate actively in our services and demonstrate significant growth in their employability skills.

@SunderlandOT It was great! And may have got me thinking about an idea for my business case :)

Congratulations to @sunderlanduni on signing the Recovery Friendly University Pledge. Just wonderful that people in recovery in the University will be acknowledged, supported & celebrated, and people will know #recoveryhappens. This is the culture change we need. #nostigma

[Laura Merrison @LauraM_OT]

Fantastic afternoon at the University Mental Health Conference at @sunderlanduni - Also proud to be a student at the first university in the UK to sign the University Friendly Recovery Pledge, a huge step towards breaking down stigma, while improving inclusion and well-being

Pronouns added to my Twitter bio after watching a fantastic Non-Binary awareness training session led by @jobrassington - and how fitting to see that it is International Pronoun Day today!

[RIPPL @rippl_ed]

Today is International Pronoun Day!

We’re reflecting on what pronouns are, how we can use them, and what to do if you make a mistake with them.

What are your pronouns?
