"It’s now a victim of its own success. It is simply too big and has too much potential to be led by a small team of volunteers, so we are on the hunt for a suitable home for its vital service", @InclusiveMinds seeks firm to offer organisation new home: bit.ly/3LQQECn

It's always great to see new initiatives to support applicants from groups that are under-represented in the #publishing industry. Diverse and inclusive workplaces are vital - they benefit everyone!
We're excited to partner with @panmacmillan to launch a new positive action proofreading course for applicants from backgrounds traditionally under-represented in #publishing. 📚 If this sounds like you, apply by 13/12: ow.ly/BpYq50GONg1 #proofreading #diversity (1/2)

Massive thanks to everyone at today’s session by @Stricolo @OnceUponaLouise @GuntaasKChugh @EditTheEpic today. And to all those who ‘bought us a coffee’ too! You can do the same at ko-fi.com/inclusiveminds. Inclusive Minds has no core funding so your support means the world.

Excellent presentations and discussions from the whole @InclusiveMinds panel at the @Honkference! Thoroughly insightful and enjoyable. Thank you all. I love this sentiment running throughout which Guntaas pinpointed - 'diversity within diversity' ❤️

Great collection of 50 superb empathy-building titles for 4-16 year olds. These are books that the #ReadForEmpathy team of judges selected to help children think “we”, not “me”. And as they say, right now, what could be more important?
Our collection has launched!! We are so proud of it! Read all about it in on our blog. empathylab.uk/blog/readforem…. Huge thanks to all our judges and @Petersbooks for all their help in getting this collection together during such a challenging year.
