21/🧵Zero change until young people with learning disabilities are no longer portrayed as undeserving of help. Current ethos is they are dodging work even when in full time education: as Phoebe is. Young people like her thrive with the right support. Why are Govt blind to this?

To say watching #MaternityBrokenTrust was incredibly hard would be a huge understatement. I was permanently harmed, victim blamed & lied to. I will never stop fighting for truth, justice & change. If you’ve been harmed at NUH please contact @OckReview * Support is available *
Please read the following statement from the Review Chair, Donna Ockenden.

Around 1 in 300 people have a stoma - what problems and barriers do they face? Well finding suitable accessible toilets is one and Felicity is on a mission to change that ...⁦@FelicityBenyonbbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-no…

I fear James is correct - in a decade of working in obstetric units I worked with many excellent and dedicated clinicians, but also with some who through frankly misguided ideology and beliefs actively harmed mums and babies (and indirectly, their families)
What @DOckendenLtd and her team will uncover at NUT (much we already know) will be truly shocking - but we also need to face up to the reality that this isn’t an issue about individual ‘rogue’ services, it’s system wide issue about the safety of our whole maternity system. 1/2

Today marks 1yr since @DOckendenLtd started her independent review in @NottmMaternity We will continue the fight until maternity services at NUH are safe and accountability has been achieved. We deserve justice 💪
It’s a year today the review led by @DOckendenLtd into failings at Nottingham's NHS maternity services began. @Kimberleyerrin2 @FelicityBenyon @natalie_needham and many more families want accountability.

‘Inclusion is about affecting culture long term’ it is so important to ‘embrace a culture of difference in work with children and young people - ensuring everyone is on the same page is often the challenge’. with Brian Lutchmiah @nasen_org @DandA_inclusion

“They preferred the invention <elaboration of the truth> because this invention expressed and corroborated their hates and fears so perfectly. It is just as well to remember that people are always doing this.” - James Baldwin in Notes of a Native Son

We need to value it because we need to value ourselves and others as the producers of facts and things within contexts. Then we can be free to change these facts and things as contexts change. Especially the context of “I”.

Once we respect, whilst also understanding the limitations, of “I” then we can do the same with the process and product of “you” and “them”. Our own rigidity and attachment to our own theory of mind has, is and will be our downfall. Unless we change it.
Great day networking, conversing and learning at #ATEconference and both @BWalkerdine and me came away with some swag!
