Great to see women leading the way in Culture. Congratulations to all three ✊🏻 – at Gillingham, England
Some might say being on the Mail on Sunday’s Woke List is far lovelier than being on the Rich List. Badge of honour?

Woman disappears - she had a drinking problem. Man murders woman - he was a competent tennis player, and she did him wrong anyway. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but t’s so interesting what is considered important information.

Fantastic blog. Thank you for your honesty. I hope the universe gives you a break in 2023! PS The free Profit First approach really helped me sort out my finances for this mathsphobe. I wrote a blog that better explains it: inkgardener.co.uk/business/p…

This is brilliant from @emmaking01 - not just freelancers should read it. “There's no safety net for traumatic life events when you work freelance.” It’s crucial commissioners of freelancer / sole trader work operate with compassion not just contracts.
After a particularly shitty couple of years I wanted to share some thoughts on how to keep your freelance business afloat when life goes sideways. Thanks to @RuthSinger and @SarahFoxCoach for giving me the confidence to share! #freelance #museumfreelance emmakingconsultancy.co.uk/bl…

History is for everyone. Very proud of the first country house aimed specifically at children. Great job team! Ropes come down as National Trust lets children roam free at Sudbury Hall theguardian.com/uk-news/2022…

Once you start to take a really close look at the addresses your ancestors lived at, all sorts of coincidences start to crop up. I've just discovered that two sets of my great grandparents were living in Iona Street, Leith in 1905: the DAVIDSONs at number 5 and the ANNALs at 84.

Met up with @emmaking01 to be critical about museums. It’s our hobby 🤣 I liked these things at Museum of Making at least

#Museums #Careers So much this. One of the things I am trying to change is the need to be seen to be doing anything and everything, going that extra mile, in addition to your own job as being seen as a badge of professional commitment. 1/
Excited we will be launching our #SetYourCareerOnFire career development approach @MuseumsShowoff later this month! #BurnBright #BurnBrief #BurnOut #Museums

Our Feb 'Collections Spotlight' was written by @emmaking01, founding director of the Holocaust and Learning Centre in Huddersfield 2017-2020. Featured in our latest newsletter, she talks about an object relating to Trude Silman, a Jewish child refugee from Czechoslovakia in 1939.
