Teacher & latterly HoD Religion & Philosophy. I've stepped back to embrace mummyhood, but still doing some supply. Interest in mental health. Dog-lover.
@MargaretKaine@Queen37bee@EvermoreDog Fair point, but do remember these are volunteers giving up their time for a good cause. Let's support them with encouraging comments.
This vid reflects the tragedy of the situation in Romania... new born pups disposed of because owners don't spay/neuter their dogs & because dogs roam the streets. There is no RSPCA in Romania. Fortunately, Sirius's Iona heard their cries...
I inherited a desk and drawers in my new job but didn’t have the key until today. When I opened it the stuff from the previous person was still inside it. Shuffling through I stumbled across the order of service for a 21yo girl, Amelia.
Many animal shelters stop rehoming animals over the Christmas period. This candle is to remember all those dogs (& cats) not spending Christmas in a #foreverhome. Please #rescue in #2020. #AdoptDontShop.
After his earlier tweet - which includes a vid of his father sleeping next to the family's elderly dog - @Jack_grahamx tweets an incredibly important message, which we felt we should share with you. 🙏 #AdoptDontShop#DogsofTwittter#rescuedog#loveyourdog#dogsarefamily
https://t.co/NG0EnCfPvR when people say 'yeah, my child's like that' or 'all children do that', well, here's physical evidence that emotionally neglected & traumatised children ARE different & need parenting differently.
Beatie has clearly had a tough start to his life. He's terrified of men. With this in mind, we feel he would be best placed with a woman in a calm home, probably as an only dog, so he gets the nurture he needs. Beatie is house trained. He's in foster in Christchurch, Dorset.
#nagamunchetty story perplexing. @BBCNaga always stands up for #BBC values, which include telling the truth and celebrating diversity. What’s more ‘we speak out when something is not right’. So how did her comments ‘go beyond’? Detail please. https://t.co/1K6Ny8TWEy
3,758 backpacks.
3,758 children not going back to school because they were killed in conflict last year.
Today I visited @UNICEF’s powerful and heartbreaking installation @UN.
World leaders need to do more to #ENDviolence against children, and all civilians caught in conflict.
After a recent tweet from a high-profile teacher, just wanted to remind you all that you should never be ashamed of your mental or physical health, your wellbeing or talking about either.
Own it!
Talk about it!
Normalise it!

A thousand times this. My daughter had to make a model of a waterfall last term. A low blow considering she’s now in secondary school. I object to junk modelling (EYF) masquerading as a KS3 homework. There’s always tears. There’s always an expensive trip to a craft shop. Hate it.
Tulip has been at the rehoming centre for months now. It is so incredibly sad that she keeps getting overlooked in favour for smaller or fluffier dogs. She has lots of energy but, as you can see, she also has lots of love to give a special someone. Please RT like crazy. 🙏
