So proud of my PhD student, Amy Summer, who ‘smashed’ (thanks ⁦@mcgeechan⁩) her PhD viva today! And she managed to fit in getting married between submitting and her viva. It’s been good to share her PhD journey, the highs & lows! ⁦@UoWPsych⁩ ⁦@UniWestminster⁩

Love @ncbtweets definition of participatory research: "An approach that gives yp influence during the research process, involving them at different stages to make research more relevant and shape it towards a wider audience" #cypinresearch

Making #yoga part of the school day makes sense on many levels, supporting physical health, emotional wellbeing and often boosting children's confidence. @dailycupofyoga https://t.co/8EeeS0ghxq

We're proud to support #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

Around 75% of mental health issues are established by the age 24. Young people need to be front and centre of any effective strategy to tackle mental health. That means in research, consultation, planning and execution.

Could not agree more #counsellors https://t.co/Pm9GKHcYB0

[The Children's Society @childrensociety]

Many more young people could be reached, quickly, if the Government committed to the provision of counsellors in all secondary schools and colleges.

Schools are a great place to support mental health... but what about those thousands of children that aren’t in school? #missingeducation #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek https://t.co/NW2jFxe3fY

[National Children's Bureau @ncbtweets]

49,187 children in England were reported as missing education in 2016/17. Join us in calling on the @educationgovuk to take urgent action to address the wild variation and gaps in data. #MissingEducation @LankellyChase https://t.co/xpFofj0uyS
