Please join me to celebrate all my years of hard work today where I was conferred with my doctorate degree at the University of Nottingham. God is great!

On Saturday I had the privilege to attend the Colonial Countryside event in Birmingham listening to historians such as Corinne Fowler, Malachi McIntosh, Casey Bailey and Miranda Kaufmann who also announced her groundbreaking new #Heiresses UK 2025 Book Tour.

Just arrived into Chester to attend a conference and took this picture with the statue of Thomas Brassey (1805- 1870) known as the World’s foremost Engineer of building railways born in Alford, Chester. What a great man, who made it easy to travel around.

I enjoyed a wonderful weekend at Malham Youth Hostel with the Sheffield & District African-Caribbean Community Association Women’s Health Group some with mobility problems, highlighting intersectionality between ‘race ‘ and disability in relation to access and national parks.

Delighted to join enthusiastic anti-race campaigners/activists from the Global Majority at the 2025 RACE Summit, Kings College, London. The Summit showcased career journeys of people such as myself in the environment/conservation sectors to encourage others.

It was great to meet and speak with David Renwick, Regional Director North, Natural England at the launch of Derbyshire Wildlife Trust’s Wilder2030 strategy and refreshed brand today at Chatsworth House.

Great to join fellow climate activists at the parliamentary launch of the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Race and Community report, “A Vision for Climate Justice: Tackling the climate and nature emergency and global systemic racism” by Runnymead at Houses of Parliament.
