Please RT! Hey Grimsby friends. I’m doing a small project with a great cause in the area and I’m looking for 80’s/90’s home video footage to use as part of it. If you have any digitised I’d be very grateful if you could upload here: forms.gle/WhkVgUGyXKa5rnLz7

I’m delighted to be here with @amatson23 and the wider leadership team from North East Lincolnshire Children Services. Day one for me working alongside colleagues building restorative and relational based practice. Humans first, professionals second.

Today our permanent leadership team reflected on the progress we make every day for children and how we relentlessly strive for the best outcomes. In the words of Sophie aged 4 years… “I can swim….just not quite yet” well in NEL we are outstanding, just not quite yet. 💫

Wow! What a fabulous first night at Cleethorpes Parkway for Matilda the Musical. Our students put on a terrific show enjoyed by a packed theatre. We can't want for a sell-out audience to see our second and last show tonight!

Listening to the brilliant @AshleyJBaptiste on @BBCRadio4 Saturday Live just now - a reminder that the care system leaves far too many children without connection, identity and love. Have a listen. So much needs to change.

Huge pleasure to welcome Dave Basker to NEL today to lead reflections with the workforce on the importance of good supervision for children, families and the workforce and the impact our “super vision” can have. .
