Answering children’s questions about death in a straightforward, honest way may seem difficult, but bereaved children tell us that it’s helpful when adults speak to them in a way that is clear and unambiguous.

So, I have been on a bit of an eclectic pilgrimage around London today: Turner at the Tate, @KirkdaleBooks in Sydenham and Beigels in Brick Lane.

Totally agree with this and having worked in both sectors see the crossovers #DementiaActionWeek

When commissioning learning disability services, consider dementia - Think about the importance of the environment – ‘dementia friendly’ environments are often ‘learning disability friendly’ too.

I visited a class of second graders to teach them about poetry, and this is a poem one student wrote.
What is Life?
My name is Marisa.
Today I feel like a wealthy lioness prancing in the fields.
Sometimes I am a fox.
Sometimes I am a wolf.
But always I am loyal.
I ask the world, "What is life?"
And the answer is
a wealthy lioness prancing in the fields.

Can you help?
I'm looking for donations of fabric remnants, odd balls of wool and ribbon for @NoBarriersHere workshops.
All donations very gratefully received!

Do you have a learning disability? Do you have a child with a learning disability? Make sure you are signed up to the Learning Disability register. It means you can access extra support from your GP. Ask your GP for more information #GetSupercharged

#Oliverscampaign
Discrimination against Learning Disabled people from the caring profession is real. Often this discrimination is subconscious, we must self reflect & heal ourselves if we are to change culture. Thoughts??
