I’m someone with lots of smiles. But from time to time, I've been to that tough place. While I've felt suicidal, I've never tried to take my own life. I've talked about how I'm feeling to Samaritans. Suicide smashes lives apart. Please help prevent it. #WorldSuicidePreventionDay

Today is a celebration of the return of 174 cultural heritage items to the Anindilyakwa People. The handover ceremony is a moment of joy, connection & reconciliation as representatives from Groote Eylandt receive items made by their Ancestors. (1/3)

I’m fundraising for Samaritans. From time to time, they've offered me a space to open up, without being judged or fixed. They honour where you’re at - human to human.🧵(1/3)

A fantastic fundraiser at The Carlton Club last night! The place was buzzing, bringing new people to the Save Ryebank Fields campaign. It was a lovely audience to share 'The Song of Ryebank Fields' with. #community #nature #soul Save RyeBank Fields 🍃💚🍃

Since March, I've been sharing 'The Song of Ryebank Fields' around #Manchester to raise awareness of the campaign. It'll be getting an airing at the fundraiser - Thurs 24 Aug, 7pm, Carlton Club, #WhalleyRange . Hope to see you there! #poetry #nature #connection Save RyeBank Fields 🍃💚🍃

when we lay down
the toil
of mending

& step
into a space
for listening

free-stitching
between souls

allowing
what arises

words
loosely held

there’s grace

the relief
of just
being human

Love #SpacesForListening ! Thank you, Brigid Russell and Charlie Jones for holding that human space - so unique each time but each one forming part of a bigger pocket in the ether. 🌈🌈🌈

'and in broken difficult lonesome experiences
you earn a quality of light that's very precious

when you come through a phase of isolation or suffering

the light that is given to you at the end of that is a very precious light

a quarried light'

John O'Donohue

Delighted to be at the opening of DidsburyArtsFestival this coming Saturday sharing 'The Song of Ryebank Fields'. This isn't just about a small plot of land in #Chorlton - it's about #Manchester & the city's future! Save RyeBank Fields 🍃💚🍃 Manchester City Council 🐝🐝🐝

JK Rowling spouting her usual anti-trans shite. The idea that men become trans women just so they can go into women's toilets and rape women is one of the stupidest ever. It'd be laughable if it wasn't so damaging. Trans women are not the enemy! The issue is men who rape.

Excited to be appearing at the opening of DidsburyArtsFestival & doing an event - 'My Poet's Boots' - but even more excited to feature so prominently in the Glossy Magazine magazine. 🌈🌈🌈

Have you seen a #Bagsy before? Keep 'em peeled, you never know when this fiendishly artistic camerado may create another piece.
