Have you cried over your child's smartphone obsession? Apparently 33% of us have. It's tragic to see how childhoods are being robbed by social media and phones. A survey of 100,000 parents found that half of them regret giving their children a smartphone. (A thread)

Is this the best networking event in Derby? It's one of my favourites, that's for sure! For starters, there are tapas from @LorentesTapas, the best tapas restaurant in the city! And the company at #TapasThursday is always excellent! bit.ly/4jQe77b

If you want your child to be safe on their journey to school, DON'T give them a smartphone. Scrolling through social media instead of watching traffic won’t keep them safe. Snapping selfies or filming friends in school uniform en route to school puts them at risk. (A thread)

We had a wonderful time helping the girls at @SwitchUpNotts make better decisions about their time on social media and phones. And it seems they did too! Thanks to @Experian for sponsoring our visit, and Becky for her kind words.
