Together we are stronger 💪 That was the message tonight as community leaders across #Newcastle convened at our Civic Centre. It was a chance for an open dialogue to ensure everyone feels safe in our City of Sanctuary. Thank you for your time and support 🖤

Why isn't @NewcastleCC ensuring that the women's organisations are involved and informed of the plans and precautions to protect the public during the "protests"¿

Why are @northumbriapol liaising with predominantly religious leaders (men) and community leaders (men) about planned far right "protests" and excluding established women led organisations that represent global majority women?

We combed through FIFA's own regulations, so you dont have to. Every bid has "fully binding obligations" to: ⚽️Have a human rights strategy to prevent abuses ⚽️Protect workers rights ⚽️Uphold UN standards on policing, equality and free speech. FIFA can deny any bid that fails

@elisha_london @Prospira_global @katespadeny I'll plan on attending 🤞, I just hope it doesn't clash with any of our other concurrent sessions!

So looking forward to speaking on #mentalhealth and #womensempowerment next week at #WD2023, as the @Prospira_global team together with @katespadeny release a first of a kind global research report. See you in Rwanda! Who else is coming along?

Ramadan Mubarak to all Muslims, wherever you are in the world 🙏

I've just added my voice to a new global survey on women’s mental health, empowerment and equality! Have your say on the mental health of women and girl’s worldwide here - bit.ly/3VMGGGp The survey takes no more than 10 mins to complete #mentalhealth @elisha_london

“We are African champions… We think we will go through and beat #France like we did in 2002” Absolutely zero fear from @fatykane when asked by @SkyNews about #Senegal’s chances tonight. Oh boy…. #ENGSEN #Lionsdelateranga #Gainde

In 2010, when @FIFACom awarded Qatar the 2022 World Cup, it was well known that exploitation of migrant workers was rife in the country. Yet FIFA turned a blind eye. In a 38 page evaluation of Qatar's bid, the word 'worker' didn't appear once. It was as if they were invisible.

Teams in the #Qatar2022 World Cup will share *$440m* in prize money. So today human rights orgs, unions & fans groups called on @FIFACom to provide at least the same to the workers who suffered to make the tournament possible. Here's why: 🧵 #PayUpFIFA amnesty.org/en/documents/m…

Huge congrats to Senegal for qualifying for Qatar. An impressive new player on display too! #SENEGY

@StephEdusei just gave a fantastic speech at #Teakisi talking about the power of referring to “ethnic minorities” / “BAME” as the Global majority as actually white people are the Global minority. They just happen to be prioritised :) #BlackHistoryMonth

Hugely impressed by the outpouring of support for Afghan refugees arriving in Greenwich. The Forum at Christchurch Church is filling up with donations, with volunteers doing great work. Details in 2nd pic if you can help.

Our new @amnesty report shows that thousands of migrant worker deaths have gone effectively unexplained in #Qatar over the last decade, despite evidence that hundreds of young men may have died as a result of working in extreme heat. A thread... amnesty.org/en/latest/news…

Spoke to some people who just happen to gay and Qatari.

@AlzDisInt @mason4233 Very powerful testimony. A heartfelt THANK YOU @mason4233 on behalf of @gospeakyourmind for sharing your story #MoveForMentalHealth #WMHD2020

Dementia advocate @mason4233 during our #DementiaHour: “If the services react to a problem, then it’s too late. The problem’s happened. You’ve gone into crisis. You’ve gone into despair. The marriage might have ended. You might have broken up family ties.”

ADI’s CEO @Paolabarbarino concludes our #DementiaHour: “This is real mental health problems, this is real issues, and we need for everybody to bear it in mind, and to bring it to the attention of governments all over the world.” #MoveForMentalHealth #LetsTalkAboutDementia

Well done @MagicMagid 👏🏾 You are such an inspiration! Can’t wait to read #Theartofdisruption #MashaAllah
