I’m hoping the risk mitigation will enable me to maintain these sessions as I’ll need to be unmasked to run them but we’ll hopefully be using a SmartAirUK blast air mini for sessions

I’m pleased to say progress has been made & sessions are due to start next Spring!

Sessions will be HEPA filtered & mask wearing is encouraged!

#CloudShrine Update:

Our first meeting went well, despite two attendees off sick.

I’m meeting in person towards the end of this month, visiting the space & to try out one of the mats, and to determine next steps.

Meanwhile marketing will be working on spreading the word across #SouthTyneside

At the #ICanCME2025 conference today!

Sabrina Poirier & Maeghan Taverner's intros blew me away.

~Acknowledging labor from people with lived experience
~Setting out expectations
~Moment of silence for those we've lost

This is what a conference designed by people with lived experience looks like πŸ§ͺ

Sounds like they’re still focusing on the same model that hasn’t worked for many years for so many!

Isn’t it unintelligence that does the same thing thinking it will produce a different outcome?

Oh dear
Perhaps get a disabled person to report on what being disabled is, unless this person is?!?

Oh yes I recall that name. It’s so sad how we remember the names of these beautiful souls yet many of us have never had the honour of meeting them in real life.

It’s likely that for me to be able to run a session that it would only happen once a month and be limited for spaces. I’m thinking 8 people per 2 hour session so I could always rotate a list as some may only be able to attend once every few months for example.

I’d love it if you could support me πŸ’™
