Just a girl and a vicar
...for anyone who knows him we could add 'and' ad infinitum....let's try humanitarian, inspiration and still someone who can end a conversation and exit like noone else 😂 lovely to bump into a man who strives or peace with every fibre.

What an emotional day. I have supported Remembering Srebrenica as long as it has existed. In 1999 I did my masters in international relations on media reporting of women's experiences in Srebrenica. It had only just happened. Fast forward. Goodness. What a sobering day

Important discussions around the experience of racial trauma in Wales in Cardiff this week. Will be spending this weekend considering the learning and how the work we are doing with ACE Hub Wales and Trauma-informed Wales will support real change together

Lighter evenings mean later walks are also an option when we can't fit it in first thing 🥰

@stresswales.bsky.social great to be with you today at your conference to talk about how we all work together to understand what a trauma and ACE informed NHS might look like. 45 mins of brilliant discussion about who, what and how we do this building persons and inclusive of all staff.

Trauma-informed Wales is about all of us living the ethos we espouse. Important to take time out for relational work and who knew Japanese Knotweedclukd provoke such important discussions! Listening, hearing, co-creating is the key. Finding space to do this. Amongst clinical practice, deadlines..❤️

Wasn't sure what to make of this at first. Ollie thoroughly enjoyed and it certainly provoked a very poignant conversation on the way home

Great to be at the Private Law Pathfinder induction event today to talk about trauma-informed practice in the family justice system. Important work to improve how how we support practitioners, and people experiencing this process.

What an inspiring first session at Ty Pawb in Wrexham at our Trauma-informed Wales road map workshop. We discussed how we turn what we know into things that will progress our ambition for a social movement. Thanks everyone. Second session tomorrow !

Great to be at @aberuni.bsky.social for the Pathway to Peace workshop and listening to the Welsh Refugee Council on how to develop trauma-informed storytelling. Brilliant to see the synergy with the Trauma-informed Wales Framework

Really enjoyed co-chairing the trauma-informed Wales implementation steering group this morning where we heard from @dotiau.bsky.social about their wonderful trauma-informed approach through the Lle Llais project on Ynys Mon. Co-created and creative! And here's my pictures from the summer ☀️

We went, we cheered and we were happy not to get nothing! Although it rained on us through the roof. One day Ollie we will come home to a win!
