Gutted not to make it to #Bristol today, but Co-Director, Katherine Cox is there.
She is also closing the conference. She’s such a trusted, respected and much-loved presence - it feels really fitting for her to hold that space.
Thank you @uwebristolofficial.bsky.social #Refugee #Asylum #Wellbeing

Buying a stack of copies of this for the inevitable #backtoschool birthday parties has made me feel hopeful today. #TheBicycle, is the true story of Mevan Babakar and how one act of kindness impacted her life as a young refugee fleeing Kurdistan @harpercollins.bsky.social 🧡

I hear people are more likely to get divorced than change banks, but not being married I am hopeful to find a better service (current provider is NatWest) and only other experience is with Unity 🤔

Keen for your recommendations for best banking providers for small charities and social enterprise (functionality, customer service, ethics, and importantly ease of switch) 🙏🏼...

Up before the birds, and crossing borders this morning (only the Tamar). On my way to #Bristol and excited, if a little bleary eyed, to meet with members of Bristol #Refugee and Asylum Seeker Partnership (BRASP) working to support people seeking safety and rebuilding their lives in the city.

One of the benefits of not having an office at Trauma Foundation South West is getting to work from places like the stunning Market Hall in Devonport – even if the blitz-era fire alarm testing took me by surprise! Thanks to Real Ideas for such an incredible space for social impact work #plymouth
