Hi - I’ve heard a lot about your work during my course at QUB. Is there an equivalent opportunity in England?
I'm so pleased to be featured in an NHS England co-produced short film about strategic co-production in the design of services for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities.
Please do have a watch!

Wishing all my friends here a happy Christmas time and best wishes for 2025. As in previous years, I have made donations to selected charities rather than send cards. This year I am supporting North East Autism Society, I.P.S.E.A and Epilepsy Society. @epilepsysociety.bsky.social

Please don’t expound the benefits of child participation while you develop laws & policies without them. An infographic explaining what you should do when you haven’t involved children on the right. The left is for those wanting to do their best to get it right- Lansdown’s 3Cs plus the Lundy Model.
Thank you 😊

Is the TES SEND Show (North and South) on Bluesky yet?
Hi! You made it over here 😊
Time to start over I guess. 🙂 Hi, I'm Darrell. I make stuff, mainly out of things you'd normally throw away. I work with children and young people, lots of them. I make 3D artwork, mainly in schools . . . and I make sculptures myself, share them online, and hopefully inspire others to have a go. 👍
Thank you ☺️
I’d love to be added to this pack please!
Thank you!
Yes please 😊
