@JaneyGodley Even when it’s expected, it’s still such a shock to lose someone you love. RIP Janey 💔

@RobDance_ About 20 odd years ago, my then boss said exactly this to me. At the time, this was unheard of. As long as I got the jobs done, he trusted me. It was a great feeling and absolutely no one took advantage of it, which I think is what employers/bosses get scared of.

There are numerous ways to support pupils with Autism. Communicating through the use of visuals and a carefully planned environment can help to support pupils.

Have a look at some more strategies below...

Absolutely agree with this. Respect works both ways 🥰

[Brad Weinstein @WeinsteinEdu]

If we want children to respect us, we must respect them too. 🙌

I remember this so clearly ❤️#thepeoplesprincess

Princess Diana shook hands with an AIDS patient without gloves in 1991. This was groundbreaking at the time because many people didn't fully understand how HIV was spread.

Consequently, those with the disease often had to spend time alone in AIDS wards.

Diana visited several of these wards to meet the patients. She expressed her feelings towards the patients: "I had always wanted to hug people in hospital beds."

She recounted a particular incident to Morton, saying, "This particular man who was so ill started crying when I sat on his bed, and he held my hand. I thought, 'Diana, do it, just do it,' and I gave him an enormous hug. It was so touching because he clung to me and cried."
