Systems meant to help often harm #neurodivergent people, especially where biases overlap, causing trauma + marginalisation.
This conference is your chance to connect, collaborate + spark real change✨

So many emotions sharing this, but here is the 1st paper from the study I did with @NikkiJSpeed @jogarstang and Jon Holmes, published in @BMJ_PO. It centres on family experiences of the multi-agency investigation into their child's sudden, unexplained death. #sudc #childloss
New publication- ‘Needs and experiences of families after a sudden unexplained death in childhood; a qualitative study’.
Thank you @criminographer, @jogarstang, Jonathan Holmes MSc, and the families and supporters who contributed to this study.

A single word —cancer— can transform the lives of everyone surrounding a child. And their stories matter too.
Help us amplify these stories. Post a photo, a memory from someone affected beyond the diagnosis. Use #WeAllLiveIt to join the wave of awareness.
