Good discussion about work and valuing key workers at today’s @MAESESOL English Corner.

Reading applications from young people to join the youth boards of @creativeedmcr & not only are they brilliant. But young ppl are rightly angry about the lack of creative education in their schools. Incredible passionate young ppl from across the city, wish we could take all 50!

Such a relaxing and inspiring morning for learners @MAESESOL #abrahammoss #cheethamhill painting truck art pots led by ex ESOL learner Lubna Tahir. The gallery first met Lubna through @TalkEnglishMcr and it’s great to see her now teaching so eloquently. Such an achievement.

Compassion is strength and studies show self-compassion is the key to resilience and well-being. And we need to learn it if we've not experienced or witnessed it enough in childhood.

How can we learn compassion? Mindfulness.
