Seven years ago today our little girl ran out of fight. Only minutes after the fourth assault that week, Emily took her own life 💔
My baby, we would give the world for just one hug, for you to bounce through the door into our arms. We love you & ache for you each& every day💔💗

‘They say that this is because of feminism trying to crush men. This is not because of feminism. This is not the fault of women’
@Harri_Grace and @b_rottweilerUCL discussed Andrew Tate and the spread of misogynistic material online with @itsanitarani ⬇️
What a team! They've raised nearly £7k for @MNDoddie5 which is a fantastic effort. Such a gruelling few days but well worth it. Thanks to everyone who's supported them so far, every penny is hugely appreciated. justgiving.com/fundraising/s…
Fantastic weekend supporting the Tilly Troglodytes as they completed the @MNDoddie5 challenge cycling from Murrayfield to Cardiff. Please donate if you can!
We made it!!! What an extraordinary experience. Thanks to everyone who sponsored us and everyone who waved at us on the way. If you want to drop a few pennies in the pot…please do it below. Thanks justgiving.com/fundraising/t……

THEY’VE GONE AND DONE IT 🎉🍾 Rob and a peloton of over 100 cyclists delivered the match ball in 48 hours in a sensational finish to Doddie Aid, raising over £250,000 for My Name’5 Doddie Foundation.
A huge thank you to all involved, time for a well-earned rest 👏
I'm 3 quarters through this fantastic book and it's the best book I've read in ages, thank you @janegarvey1 and @fifiglover for introducing me to it, and bigger thanks to @MASieghart for writing it. Now I've just got to get my husband to read it, and everyone else I know!
Another fantastic podcast by @PINsykes this time about @britneyspears, a devastating story that, as someone who is just a year older than britney and has followed her story, I somehow feel complicit in her misery #FreeBritney
Really excited to be starting the evaluation of the @WomensFundScot 2016 fund, very much looking forward to speaking to the wide range of orgs who support women across Scotland

A belated message of support in #BabyLossAwarenessWeek for the #ChangingMiscarriageCare campaign being led by my friend @ShonaRobison. Not only has Shona - like so many other women - gone through miscarriage herself, she was a great source of support to me when I did.

A huge thank you to the volunteers who cleared all this rubbish from the A91 from Dollar towards Tilly today (observing social distancing of course), what a fantastic effort.
Next target is the road to Muckhart… instagram.com/p/B_iKZnvBD06/… – at Dollar, Scotland
As part of my work with @Dollar_CDT I've spent the last 2 wks setting up a community Larder, it's been so good to see the community come together & support us alongside the other support services being provided. Dollar is a great place to live #dollar #CaringCommunities #Covid_19
We’ve been overwhelmed by the support from our community, the Larder shelves are filling up nicely and we’ve received over £3500 in donations. What a fantastic community we live in #Dollar #Clackmannanshire… instagram.com/p/B-poU6oB05f/…
Really looking forward to getting started on the @volunteer_scot Clacks Befriending evaluation next week, I loved evaluating their handy person service in 2017 - where has the time gone? #Evaluation #research #impact #youngpeople #befriending #clackmannamshire
I'm finally making use of all the half-used tubes of handcream I've got in various places about my house #covid19UK #WashYourHands #HandsLikeSandpaper

The Truacanta Project and its learning will be even more important @Palliative_Scot once this #COVID2019 nightmare is over #CompassionateCommunities
Sadly-we will have to talk about #dying with #COVID19 . We need to support our #nhsworkers to have these difficult conversations with compassion and honesty. Thanks to @openchangeuk for this powerful visual which helps start that learning. @zimscotcaroline @SQSFellowship

Thank you to our youngest volunteer Holly who did a litter pick for us today along the A91, she only covered around 150 yards and look how much she collected. Thank you Holly! #keepscotlandbeautiful #litterpicking… instagram.com/p/B-KqXY0Bml6/… – at Dollar, Scotland
