I'm so grateful for the opportunity to have worked with @SkyNews on the General Election coverage.
It was brilliant to see what happens behind the scenes of an election and meet the candidates and MP's.
Now, onto the next opportunity!

Today is such a special event for so many people, and it's been another great example of how special it is that Lord Mayor @JaynePDunn attends community events like these. 4/4

This is just one of many events the Lord Mayor @JaynePDunn will be attending, and one that she normally attends in a different capacity - dressed as an elf! This year, she has been de-elfed and adores her gold chains in her mayoral capacity. 3/4

Lord Mayor @JaynePDunn opened @SomaliWeekFest today @ Poetry from Britian & Somaliland.
The event, part of @otsfestival and @PoetryTranslate, saw Somali poetry translated, to support the breaking of barriers and exploring more diverse heritages #jnlworkplacements @sheffjournalism

I'm with @sheffjournalism at the Israac Somali Community Centre this afternoon with Lord Mayor @JaynePDunn, to hear from poets as part of the Poetry Translation Centre and @OffTheShelf.
