I love this! @chrisdysonHT and his team make the dream a reality, yet again! ❤️🙌🏻 – at Redworth, England
All I wanted to do when I was little was to play football. Money was tight and as my feet grew buying new boots was difficult. I made it my aim @ParklandsLeeds to ensure NO child has to go without. Thus my business links. Today we got these from the awesome @ActionForSport x

A new way to hear Vivaldi - brilliant and joyous! @mrbenengland @ChoirOfTheEarth
Nothing like a bit of Vivaldi played by The Goede Hoop Marimba Band to bring joy to any day #WednesdayMotivation

100% this.
Humans first, professionals second ‘When you show deep empathy toward others, their defensive energy goes down, and positive energy replaces it. That's when you can get more creative in solving problems.’ - Stephen Covey marymyatt.com/blog/humans-fi…

A good mentor once shared this very same message with me. It’s not the weight that matters most, it’s how long we hold onto it. Even the lightest weight will bear down on us when held too long #Worry #LetItGo

Today sees the start of unlocking, with that comes change & with that maybe some worry. Remember, a massive percentage of the things we worry about don’t come true. So here’s a gentle reminder to not let those negative thoughts take over & do the brilliant work you always do!

Walked past a school yesterday at 7-30am. Lights on, cars in the car park. Did two virtual events for over 300 teaching staff yesterday. Heard of one school distributing laptops to pupils. Schools are not closed. They’re just engaging with pupils differently. #edutwitter

Was an absolute pleasure to appear on this podcast.
So excited to share this latest podcast with Paul McGee @thesumoguy! Such an inspiring conversation; "Words can change worlds" and "If we decide to take a passive rather than a proactive approach to life, we will never learn to fly". Thanks so much Paul! buzzsprout.com/978478/698384…

Such a coincidence to see this tweet from @StephenRCovey as this was the topic of our podcast recording this morning with the inspiring @WoodKelda look forward to sharing our take on this with you all next week!
"Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to reply. They're either speaking or preparing to speak. They're filtering everything through their own paradigms, reading their autobiography into other people's lives." - Stephen R. Covey
Was supporting a young lady today who was having a panic attack & found myself quoting the amazing @drewpovey & thinking about how it’s those moments when we stop & have those meaningful conversations with our young people that the real education happens for both of us.

40 minutes of pure joy. Absolutely love Sophie's reference to the fact that a young person only needs 1 adult behind them who believes in them, and gives them space to think, in order to fly. Such an insightful podcast.

Going through the school reports and find a photo of my daughter at school in the folder, flipped it over and saw her name turned into this compliment card. I just love this from her teacher 💖💖. I’m so grateful to all of them, they are wonderful.
