Finished our Christmas cake today, topped with an icing version of Brighton’s Royal Pavilion @BrightonMuseums #MerryRegencyChristmas
Excellent learning at Bournemouth #LGAConf23 (the Innovation Zone was particularly good and lived up to its name). Fab networking with @LGAcomms and @LGcomms colleagues plus many council colleagues from near and far. Top location, motivational agenda, brilliant people. Loved it!
It was challenge time for the @LGcomms #FutureLeaders after a morning masterclass from @M__FOUR today. A high point in the annual programme timetable. Excellent leadership, collaboration and innovation from both teams.
Mark Fletcher-Brown and Raj Tulsiani @LGcomms #CommsAcad sharing their insight on how comms professionals can best work with and influence senior leaders.
Nicky Old, Director of Communications @LGAcomms, leading the cost of living crisis session @LGcomms #CommsAcad Sharing practical knowledgeable ways to use our skills to support people who are struggling, avoiding stigma and reaching those in need.
A unique story @lgcomms #CommsAcad illustrating the wider aspect of diversity and inclusion from @ContinuingSaga Socio economic diversity makes our communications better and we can all champion this in our own organisations
Nana Crawford, British Red Cross, making serious points in a fast paced and effective way. Amazing session about the importance of representation and how we can all make a difference @LGcomms #CommsAcad
Kim Sklinar brings a mix of professional comms and personal experience as a Ukrainian woman living in the UK. Powerful, emotional and inspiring insight into ethical comms around the war in Ukraine. Thank you @dosomethingkim @lgcomms #CommsAcad
We’re back in person for @LGcomms #CommsAcad 2022, plus delegates watching online too. Excellent start from Lee Cain, former Director of Communications at No10, talking strategy in a crisis, and how powerful comms comes from prioritisation, simplification and repetition.

Thanks to colleagues @UKgovcomms and @LGAcomms for the learning shared with the @LGcomms #FutureLeaders yesterday. Inspiring and practical, an excellent development opportunity for the cohort. Always a highlight of the annual programme.
This week, our 2022 Future Leaders cohort paid a visit to Whitehall!
As per tradition, they met Chief Executive of Govt Communications @BaughSimon to hear about the work of @UKgovcomms and spent the afternoon with @LGAcomms' Director of Communications Nicky Old.
