Don't mind having a working weekend when you get to spend it at the @NCMME being part of the "History and Legacy of the 1984/5 Miners’ Strike Symposium". Thanks @ProfGildart for organising the day, lots to think about for future research 🤔 ✊ ncm.org.uk/whats-on/history-…
So proud of the Young Leaders who smashed the research event at the @NCMME. Shout out to @mikkmurray our Graffiti Artist who captured the lads' stories & @silverfox504 our former miner who led the coal workshops & supported each stage of the project ✊

There is still plenty of time to get booked onto our event at the National Coal Mining Museum on Saturday... here's a sneak preview of the events for the day 👀
Come join us at the @NCMME for our Youth led event 📢📢
The exhibition celebrates the power of youth voice through vibrant street art. It explores lads' experiences of education, employment, and opportunity in the former coalfields of Barnsley.

Anyone that knows me knows how much I love Barnsley so it's been a pleasure to be at @barnsleycollege today with @ellibrickwood13 delivering an Outreach session on the suite of Education degrees at @HuddersfieldUni (plus VIP parking...big thanks to BC for having us).

The event is part of a research project funded by the National Lottery, Authoring Our Own Stories, and is presenting findings from this phase of the research from the Yorkshire and Humber Youth Work Unit (you can read more here): youthworkunit.com/supporting…

Great turn out at the Open Day at work topped off by a fantastic conference at the @NCMME with stories and talks from Lawyers 'at the Coalface' during the miners' strike. Massive thanks to @Law_Solidarity for organizing the event 💪
Picking up a module next year on all things culture, Bourdieu, and Curriculum...has anyone got any lectures/seminars/materials/papers they would be willing to share/recommended 🙏✊
It's great to see that amongst all the advancements with technology, picking up Yorkshire accents on transcription tools is still shite...(Should say I'm from South Kirkby which is down the road from you guys).
Any good **Free** recommendations???

Great morning doing an Outreach day with @EarlyNcb- they have retained the crown of 'Best Story Tellers' 👑 with the dystopian story of Rishi Sunak destroying the world, Jeremy Clarkson sending all humans to pick potatoes, AI taking over the world & the potato reigning supreme
To top the week off, someone has swiped a box of chocolates out of my post tray at work... I will find you.

How's your day going? I just dipped by dungaree straps down the pisser and it's a pretty accurate summary of my Monday so far 🙃

Strange morning submitting my CV and supporting statement to 'fight' for my job but spending the afternoon in the sun with this one and a spot of reading 😎

How is it that some people are STILL getting away with using other people's research, spinning it off as their own and putting themselves as lead author to feed their narcissistic ego?
