March is #EndometriosisAwarenessMonth.

Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the womb starts to grow in other places, such as the ovaries and fallopian tubes.

Excited to say that I am starting a PhD with @UniShefArch and @eryrinpa looking at Neolithic axe making sites and placemaking in North Wales. Have gained a huge amount of life experience working for the BM and the Blythe House Decant Project, but very happy about my next chapter!

@kitbashcat Download the Too good to go app. Get loads of cheap food that would otherwise be thrown out- sometimes can be whole meals. Pay attention to the ratings I never do any under 4 stars. Greggs is the best.

This is my meal for tonight because all I can afford is donated potatoes and a tin of beans since @uniofbrighton stole 100% of my wages for not marking 3 dissertations. This is how lecturers are treated here, which @ucu @BrightonUCU are trying to change. Help @BootstrapCook

Stumbled across my #iceageisland collection! Every season has so many memories 😊 Artwork by the amazing @TabithaPaterson. Maybe it’s time for a new design!

[Becky Vickers @beckyvicks]

@MatthewPope @UCLarchaeology @ArchSouthEast Really pleased for you congrats Matt!

[Becky Vickers @beckyvicks]

Really nifty. Wish all museums were this transparent about disposals!

[York Castle Museum @YorkCastle]

We've worked with @UniOfYork on a student project to explain why museums sometimes have to dispose of objects.
Our fantastic student placement Alexandra McMohan has put together this visually stunning presentation to help explain the process and communicate it to our audiences.👇

As a new week begins*

Take a #MuseumMindfulMoment for yourself and reflect on the insurmountable obstacles you are yet to be made aware of!

Then crack on with doing more, with less, more often, more enthusiastically. #Being #Museums
