@andy_caress Limit your time sitting as this puts the greatest strain on your discs, try lying on your side, heat/TENS, over the counter pain meds and regular movement. If you lose feeling anywhere/experience altered sensation, seek medical help asap. Take care x
I'm very proud of the wonderful young people I have been working with as part of our @PlanUK Champions of Wales project. They have worked really hard on this campaign and would love it if you could share their post below! @LizzyFauvel @Leigh_Ingham @justjojo71
Vocal Voices is a campaign run by a group of young people in South Wales designed to support 11-15 year olds to become more assertive & get their voices heard. Here are some posters we've been working on, please feel free to share! #vocalvoices
@WilkinsonJamesD Unfortunately, this is a common response from schools when challenged on this issue. I hope they keep their word and make the necessary changes to their curriculum. Well done to the young people who challenged this, it's not an easy thing to do and takes a lot of courage!
Disheartened but not suprised by @BBCWalesNews report re: female athletes' experiences of catcalling&objectification in community spaces. These experiences mirror those of the adolescent girls who contributed to my PhD research. When will girls&women be free to exercise in peace?
Today we began delivering The ASCENT Project (V2.0) which has been developed using the findings from my PhD feasibility research. It's almost two & a half years since I began this piece of work & I'm thrilled to see it being used in practice. What a feeling! 🎉
A new project for us in @yggllangynwyd this morning! We started with an introductory session looking at 5 things important to me and making it work-allowing pupils to devise their own rules for the project. Excited to see how these pupils engage and develop :)
@cjohnyrun I'm an independent research consultant & currently writing up. I'm working with a non-ac dept. that partnered in 1 of my PhD studies & using the findings of my research to directly inform our work. The impact of this is huge & I would never be able to achieve this in an ac role!
@actionforme 1. Good GP's are few&far between 2. The drugs won't help 3. Nobody knows what to do with you 4. You will achieve things, slowly and with endless set backs 5. It never gets easier, you just get better at doing it 6. You'll never be able to maintain regular exercise 7. You got this

@AcademicChatter@Heather_RoseW Hey! I'm a third year PhD researcher with a soon-to-be 5 year old Son. I'm currently trying to juggle writing papers, writing chapters, research consultancy, Pokèmon and Danger Mouse. Thank you for this thread ♥
