I was being so productive and now I'm accidentally on the internet again..

[Sally Stephens @Sally_Steph]

It's inaccessible and dangerous for me and others to be veering into the bike lane. @LeedsCC_Help how do we get this sorted when you ignore the online feedback form?

[Sally Stephens @Sally_Steph]

Just complained about this for the second time so obviously I'm not taking my frustration to a public forum... Why is the footpath blocked by sign stands which now don't even have any signs (the first complaint was about the signs which were unnecessary).

[NCVO @NCVO]

The Charity Governance Code is undergoing an update and they want to hear from you!

Respond to the consultation here: https://t.co/XCMiIFQm25

In doing so, you'll help make the Code as practical and accessible as possible and support good #Governance across the #CharitySector.

Charities have the fundamental right to carry out political activity related to their work. As such, we believe that comments made today by the Home Secretary are damaging to the effective working of charities as part of a healthy democracy. Read in full: https://t.co/KF3f7FxIb5

A little while since I've done one of these, but it's been a busy summer in the world of governance! https://t.co/YOY5eNU8xg

[Sally Stephens @Sally_Steph]

Update: the panel was excellent, @RosieCollingto and @MazzucatoM are stunning speakers, and of course I bought the book

[Sally Stephens @Sally_Steph]

Excited to use my time down in London to hear more about "The Big Con" and how detrimental consultancy can be...I'm hopeful it'll lead me to be a better consultant (but if I take a new career route you'll all know why!)

We get lots of questions from trustees and managers on how and when to share issues or concerns with the @ChtyCommission. How do you know you are not overcommunicating? Thursday @NCVO we have the webinar which will answer this and more! Book your place: https://t.co/SJhLuc4yCf

@TPEassist Is it OK if I DM this info. I don't really need the whole of twitter knowing my travel plans

[Sally Stephens @Sally_Steph]

Hiya @TPEassist I'm trying to book cycle spaces for May, there are no spaces on any of the trains we are looking at through the entire evening. Help?

[Sally Stephens @Sally_Steph]

@TPEassist Thanks Mariel but seats are showing as available. Are you saying we have to wait until seats are more expensive just because you won't let us tell you we also have bikes?

[H.E.T. @HolocaustUK]

Today is Holocaust Memorial Day. We remember the six million Jewish men, women and children murdered by the Nazis and their collaborators, all victims of Nazi persecution and the victims of subsequent genocides. #HMD2023 #HolocaustMemorialDay

[Sally Stephens @Sally_Steph]

Lovely to start my day on @BBCr4today talking about being a volunteer @LeedsVM and sharing how brilliant volunteering is. Keep an eye out for news from @NCVO on the Big Help Out if you want a way to get involved!
