And now the Thank Yous: my MSc supervisor at @ntupsychology.bsky.social Jens Binder who managed to make the model look like the Millennium Falcon (to my eyes anyway); co-author Blerina Kellezi; and the CDT committee: Drs Annette Greenwood and Anne Douglas are presenting the award in the pic. 😊

What a boost! The @bpsofficial.bsky.social Crisis Disaster and Trauma section gave me this last week:

Using creative arts, the ATTUNE project has gained young people's perspectives on the types of adversity they experience... and their contribution to ACEs is... wow!: school settings, invalidation by adults and masking. Now THAT'S a stunning example of participant focused research. #UKPTS2025 conf.

Hearing about how Leeds City Council are making their services trauma informed is pretty inspiring today at #UKPTS2025 "not only therapy is therapeutic"

Happy place today. Attending a conference #ukpts2025 is like being a student again: without the threat of being assessed. First conference on BlueSky too.

Sounds good: I lecture in Trauma Social Isolation and Mental Health and spent my summer interviewing professionals involved in the care of separated young people seeking asylum in the UK.
