An interesting case if someone's free to observe it - and maybe write us a blog post?

[Eleanor Tallon @Eleanor_Tallon]

@KitzingerCelia A good example of why open justice is so important, demystifying the process & reducing the barriers /anxiety for a family member- hopefully promoting active involvement in her mother's future case (imagine it feels very daunting for family to attend COP with no prior knowledge).

[Celia Kitzinger @KitzingerCelia]

My new blog post - co-authored with the daughter of P (s.21A, dementia) in a different case. It's so useful for family members to watch a COP hearing before experiencing the hearing for their own relative. Pleased this could be facilitated in #notsecretcourt

Excellent meeting with Mom's home care hospice provider that quickly dispensed with the What is Hospice? bit for me and Retired-Funeral-Director-Dad. Then we all talked about death, the history of hospice care since the 1970s and Cecily Saunders.

It was very comforting.

My amazing Mom....
has an aggressively spreading and incurable bowel cancer so we're starting hospice care for her soon
At home.
Where she wants to die.
This is my favourite photo of her
my little sister
and me
a long time ago
at the photo studio with sublime fake backdrops.

A brilliant keynote @paulmaharg #bileta22 Great thinking points about how we could all improve approaches to legal education and creativity. His last slide brings both sadness and hope... @bileta

Is Clearview (or its ilk) "general purpose" AI?

if so according to #AIA amendments floating around paid for by big tech, they would cease to be a provider with any responsibilities where service incorporated into another product - even tho biometric ID is always high risk 1/2

“The family lived modestly in a one-bedroom apartment. His mother was a nurse, his father first a street cleaner and later an electrician. What extra money they had, they spent on Joseph’s education — every book in the household was his.”

There are many threats to Oxbridge. Admitting more state school pupils is not one of them.
