UKRI Community Forum


This was a really great day, sponsored by Ofgem with the aim of bringing together energy innovators and the general public to discuss improving the ways they share information about their services. 

I often ask clients what sort of image they prefer from a selection of examples I pre-share - and this circle with a swoosh seems to be very popular this year! I think it's because it allows the eyes to travel and has a feels of onward movement/change. 

We're definitely in a period of massive change since the war started in the Middle East a month ago, who knows where we'll all be in another year...

National Police Conference - Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG)

This was quite a challenging couple of days, live scribing probably the worst kinds of things happening in our current society/world, against women and girls, but with a hope that collectively the police can be aware and taken action to make a difference. 











This is a picture of me at the end of it all - tired and slightly relieved I can go home, and read/watch/listen to something more wholesome!

Live Scribing in Nottingham

The wish is that senior management teams reflect the audience that they serve. It was a really inspiring day of talks and workshops, and even some forum theatre courtesy of Narrative Alchemy theatre company.



This image will be displayed and shared to keep their work going, it's important that the spirit and energy of that special day continues throughout the working year.

Logo design, helping to spread good practice

It's usually a Family Court Advisor (FCA) who is attached to Cafcass, who liaises between the family and the family courts during court proceedings.

A few of the iterations here:
