Really enjoyed recording this with the @historyworkshop.org.uk podcast about the podcast we made about the Islington Nursery Strike, released on the Childcare Voices podcast

On again at Edale Village Hall 8-9th November if you fancy a trip to the peaks.

Very excited to have my first sound installation open at @sheffieldmuseums.bsky.social as part of @sensoriafestival.bsky.social 🚆💥

A terrific piece of writing.

Waves J27 tape saturation looks good for this.

Great weekend delivering oral history training for the @1in12club.bsky.social as part of Bradford City of Culture 25. Really lovely people and an important project. Got tipped off to visit the Kunafa Tea restaurant for delicious Syrian food too.

Friends help us celebrate the spirit of @1in12club.bsky.social as part of Bradford City of Culture 2025.
