I’m not sure this isn’t an over-generous reward for 5 miles of cycling but treating myself nonetheless :) #Belay2025in2025 justgiving.com/page/belay2025in2025

Please sign and share the #ASGSF petition - it takes moments but we need as many voices as possible. You don't have to be an adopter, kinship carer or special guardian yourself; but please help those of us who are get our children access to the therapy they need. www.change.org/p/action-aga...

The delays tp the 2025 announcement regarding the #ASGSF (Adoption and Special Guardianship Support Fund), and now the cuts to the support available for children through the fund, are leaving many families in despair. If you can join us at the @asgsfprotest.bsky.social on 3rd May please do.

Young person walks in from school. Me from adjacent room: "Hi" Young person walking up stairs: "Why do you say hi like that?" Any recommendations on a(n even) more innocuous option? 🤷‍♀️

Clocked up very few miles for #Belay2025in2025 over the Easter holiday but hoping to get back on track a bit in the last few days of April ... Feeling much better after 10 miles yesterday (and reclaiming my bike which has been getting some much-needed tlc at the bike shop) but still need to focus 🤞

On the off chance, if you flew into Heathrow T5 from JFK early yesterday morning and picked up the wrong black Eastpak suitcase from carousel 10, my husband would really like it back. Yours is still at Heathrow! Please RT! We’d really like our stuff!

Really sad for so many families (and providers) that it is so late - but thank goodness ... the #ASGSF is to continue.

A while ago a lovely German man appeared at our church. He came a few times to look around during our Saturday opening hours, before asking if the piano abandoned in the corner worked. I told him it was horrendously out of tune, and the cathedral piano tuner had deemed it not worth sorting out.

I took this today about half an hour before sunrise on Glastonbury Tor. I haven't seen these two flowers there before so thought it made a nice image for Mother's Day. Sending love from the heart of Avalon. 💜

Pretty chuffed to have passed the 600 mile mark for #Belay2025in2025 today! Yay! If any one is feeling able to do a teeny bit of sponsoring I promise we use very penny wisely :) Thank you xxx Justgiving.com/page/belay2025in2025

Brief #ASGSF update? Well no, actually not really. An MP asked at PMQs today - but got the same old answer: apparently they’re still aiming to update soon. Oh great. So many hugely vulnerable children now forced to absorb yet another abrupt loss; so many families feeling abandoned and afeared. 😡

Anyone else waiting a little apprehensively to hear what's actually in the #SpringStatement today? So many potential changes afoot for families like so many of ours, living with #earlylifetrauma, supporting #SEND children, trying to cope as #disabilitybenefits seem to be ever more targeted ... :(

8.5 miles towards #Belay2025in2025 this morning, in the sunshine. Might even have to invest in some new gear if this glorious weather is going to continue! #LoveSpring If you would like to support my challenge for @thebelayfoundation.org.uk > justgiving.com/page/belay2025in2025 Thank you!

My #Belay2025in2025 challenge: to cover 2025 miles during 2025: walking, cycling, paddleboarding. Anything me-powered. Yay! That should mean fresh air & exercise for me; maybe also some pennies for @@thebelayfoundation.org.uk if anyone can spare any? justgiving.com/page/belay2025in2025 Thank you!
