21/🧵Zero change until young people with learning disabilities are no longer portrayed as undeserving of help. Current ethos is they are dodging work even when in full time education: as Phoebe is. Young people like her thrive with the right support. Why are Govt blind to this?

To say watching #MaternityBrokenTrust was incredibly hard would be a huge understatement.
I was permanently harmed, victim blamed & lied to.
I will never stop fighting for truth, justice & change.
If you’ve been harmed at NUH please contact @OckReview

Mansfield mother calls for toilets to be made 'stoma-friendly' bbc.in/43cv05b
Peter Benyon retweeted
Around 1 in 300 people have a stoma - what problems and barriers do they face? Well finding suitable accessible toilets is one and Felicity is on a mission to change that ...@FelicityBenyon bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-no…

I fear James is correct - in a decade of working in obstetric units I worked with many excellent and dedicated clinicians, but also with some who through frankly misguided ideology and beliefs actively harmed mums and babies (and indirectly, their families)
What @DOckendenLtd and her team will uncover at NUT (much we already know) will be truly shocking - but we also need to face up to the reality that this isn’t an issue about individual ‘rogue’ services, it’s system wide issue about the safety of our whole maternity system. 1/2

Today marks 1yr since @DOckendenLtd started her independent review in @NottmMaternity
We will continue the fight until maternity services at NUH are safe and accountability has been achieved. We deserve justice 💪
It’s a year today the review led by @DOckendenLtd into failings at Nottingham's NHS maternity services began. @Kimberleyerrin2 @FelicityBenyon @natalie_needham and many more families want accountability.

‘Inclusion is about affecting culture long term’ it is so important to ‘embrace a culture of difference in work with children and young people - ensuring everyone is on the same page is often the challenge’.

Intersectional Realities and inclusive leadership.
@DandA_inclusion loving it!! We need more of these conversations everywhere and all of the time!
“They preferred the invention <elaboration of the truth> because this invention expressed and corroborated their hates and fears so perfectly. It is just as well to remember that people are always doing this.” - James Baldwin in Notes of a Native Son
We need to value it because we need to value ourselves and others as the producers of facts and things within contexts. Then we can be free to change these facts and things as contexts change. Especially the context of “I”.
Great day networking, conversing and learning at #ATEconference and both @BWalkerdine and me came away with some swag!
For me:
Change is the drive,
Education is the driver,
Policy is the vehicle, and
Belonging is the destination
Still loving the #ATEconference listening to final keynote on Education, Employment and Policy
Listening to @aheadireland Trevor Boland at #ATEconference. I love universal design for learning and promote whenever I can!! #UDLfanboy 🙌
