Really important support role for people recovering from injury, know anyone? Also pleasing to see that the Day One charity is expanding the support work that brings major trauma survivors so much reassurance.

What a wonderful idea! I đź’ś this collaboration. With cost of living, getting workplace-ready is even more challenging for our students than it ever was. This is a triple-winner: sustainability; employability; fairness to students from less affluent backgrounds.

Being a trauma psychologist today meant taking a "break" from marking to attend a brilliant lecture on wartime (WWII) sexual slavery or "comfort women" by Dr Sachiyo Tsukamoto. Thank you NTU Research ...the colleague conversations after made my week.

My lovely GIHNTU colleague Darel Cookson provided great conspiracy theory food-for-thought today at #icsih6. Fascinated to hear of an association between conspiracy beliefs and Family identity... relateable!

Reading this social psychology take on the weekend's events helped me... I was heartened to see the quick off the mark anti-fascist response. Sheffield in particular. John Drury 's blog explains why that response matters so much.

The inaugural lecture of someone you really like is a pleasure; I'm rather in awe of Professor Pam Alldred's lifetime of achievements and authenticity (including the stripey tights). "A good girl never goes anywhere without her politics" - Yass! Congrats! Professor Pam Alldred NTU Research
