#CampDigital nostalgia

Camp digital, what a blast. Bed is calling, via Five Guys 💯 may have bumped into someone as I went in there… won’t out them, but great minds is all I say! Good night 😴 x

Thanks @tumshie.me that was fun, and cathartic. After our non-digital day yesterday with the team, it feels like there’s a nice momentum building around not relying on digital for every single part of our lives!

A very life affirming session by Kanika Selvan this afternoon about matriarchy and building in feminism into our every day #campdigital

Had a lovley morning of talks. Pretty inspiring stuff from @herahussain.bsky.social about participatory design delivered with newborn! And from @jukes.ie and his dedication to tattoo his values and remind me to get back into blogging!

Good morning campers! @nexerdigital.com are excited to welcome you all to our 13th annual conference #CampDigital at the Royal Northern College of Music today. Come say hi, enjoy the day and have fun! 🏕️💕

Joy Diversion hosted by the wonderful @opendatamcr.bsky.social team. Ready to mooch around Macc for our “Macc and Chill 😎” theme. All things air con, and relaxed vibes for the afternoon I think…

Last minute call before we move to last-minute pricing tier x

True test of patience = sourdough starter

Happy Global Accessibility Awareness Day ( #GAAD)! This year we launched our 'I Matter Too' campaign, spotlighting the importance of prioritising #accessibility as a core value, moving beyond compliance, and highlighting the experiences of people with disabilities. Watch our video to learn more! ⬇️

Bit of a Blueksky hiatus, soz. Life’s been absolutely life-ing. What / who have I missed?!

And we’re off. Our Inclusive housing event, brought to you by @nexerdigital.bsky.social and Paper, kicks off today. Complete with stickers and pastries, and of course fantastic expertise in the room, it’s shaping up to be a corker. Focusing on inclusive services, accessibility and humanity 🏡

Last week @amyczuba.bsky.social attended the launch of the Carbon Literacy Toolkit, a project we've been pleased to contribute to alongside other orgs in the North West. Here's Amy's writeup of a brilliant event and initiative: www.nexerdigital.com/news-and-tho... #Sustainability

Lest we forget. A reminder to stand up, and wise up, to the propaganda that is still on the world stage today. We will not repeat the past. #Holocaustmemorialday

Had ourselves a little UK/Scottish Fika today in Macc. Was a nice mosh-mash of our collective cultures

Doing the happy dance today 💃🏼

🐦 #CampDigital - our early bird sales ends tomorrow! We've planned a fantastic day on 3rd July, packed with inspiring talks from leaders in our industry, immersive workshops with plenty of practical tips to take away, and lots of opportunities to connect with the community. #Design #Digital

All the snow last week, the wildfires in LA, glaringly obvious signs of global warming and the affects of climate change. The backdrop to the new AI plan being rolled out by government that encourages more data centres being built here in the UK.

The moon is literally this emoji rn 🌝

First time navigating a funding bid, providing many learning curves, but at the same time it’s nice to do something new, that will hopefully result in an innovative project for us 💡

Probs better off out here tbh

The first fall of snow ❄️

Traitors has officially taken over my life, but seriously, give the good people name tags, so they can all spell each others names?

Nothing quite says Christmas like the words “get full fat”

Am I ok? Going out on builders Friday as a sober person. Wish me luck 🍻

Signing off for 2024 for the Christmas season and wrote some words about how December has been for me. If you are celebrating have a lovely time and don’t forget to rest! Catch you on the flip side folks🎄 www.linkedin.com/pulse/closin...

This is the person of the year.

Your yearly reminder that Christmas Wrapping by the Waitresses is the best Christmas song. You're welcome: youtu.be/0BIBvul7_jg?...

I have this little tradition on the last working day of the year, where I get up super early and watch The Snowman. David Bowie always makes me smile but especially at Christmas! Let the wind down begin!

We ran a workshop today for a big charity that do really good work, but have some pretty soul destroying, growing, challenges to fight. It was really energising to be brought into a conversation where we can make a big difference through careful design. Be thinking about this all Christmas for sure.

Had a really lovely day discussing inclusion beyond compliance with some brilliant folks. Can’t wait to share more soon. Dream team Chris & Danny! Soon as I got on the train home, I got reminded why we do what we do, and we have minds to change. Bit of compassion too goes a long way…

On route to London this morning, running a roundtable with leaders in the Financial Services sector all around building inclusive and accessible services for all. Had some recent family experience of barriers in this space so I’m really looking forward to seeing what we can learn!

Wow! Loving our Spotify Wrapped this year. Such great songs... #SpotifyWrapped

Today’s lesson: always sign up for alerts if “more tickets come available”… just bagged myself 2x Sam Fender tickets for tonight in Leeds 🤩

Brilliant interview with Claire! Can’t wait to see her talk at Camp Digital!

Woo! #CampDigital is back. We’ve got a new look, but the event remains a space for: 🔥 Sharing inspiring stories 🔥 Learning from brilliant minds shaping accessibility, UX, and tech for good 🔥 Connecting with a community that shares passion for positive impact. www.nexerdigital.com/campdigital/...

Wrote about Nexer Digital sponsoring and attending UKCharityCamp last week, it was great to catch up with old friends and making new ones. Lots of insights moving in to 2025! www.linkedin.com/pulse/ukchar...

Started an unconference session about Bluesky and boycotting X. Lead into a nice conversation around ethics, governance, oh, and a nice starter pack too 😉. #UKCharityCamp

Lovely to quite literally hear the energy in the room as we put the grid together. #UKCharityCamp

Aaaaaand we’re underway. @harryharrold.bsky.social getting us started for the day 🔥

It’s 6am, Baltic, and I’ve just spilled my brew all over the car. But all is not bad in the world, because I’m off to #UKCharityCamp in Birmingham today, and I can’t wait to mingle with the good folk of the charity world. Say hello if you’re also going! 👋

A nice power cut to wake me up at 5 am this Saturday morning. Happy weekend all! Alarms going off left right and centre 😢

Instead of wrestling with my new flatpack bed, I made cinnamon buns and had a festive Friday evening. I’m not worried about it. 🥰👩‍🍳🧁🫖

How are we in 2024, and we still can’t narrow down a delivery window? I desperately need to know whether I am gonna have to drop from calls to try and jigsaw a new bedframe into my tiny door. They’ll just have to leave it outside.

Happy Friday 👋 absolutely been living for my morning walks this week. There’s something about walking around the village in this crisp morning which helps focus the mind 🧣

Just done a yoga session in my puffer jacket cos the radiators were broken in the bloody gym. If that’s not dedication I don’t know what is 🧘🏼‍♀️

Anyone else got a dedicated playlist to get you in the zone for writing a big meaty bid response? Or is that just me…

People are people, not resources!
