My other article this week is a comment piece on the incident at Johnson’s Zoo.
With all the talk around the man responsible, I give an alternative scenario - not reducing the seriousness of the incident - just wanting a healthier discussion around it

I've been writing about becoming disabled.
A very general piece, but I'm hoping to write a part two.
Let me know if there is something you'd want people in your church to know about becoming disabled.
Here's a free link to read the column:

How to help your community during the #Heatwave: Actively check on those less able to regulate their body temperature (e.g. older people), offer to collect medicines or food shopping for people who can’t get out, and ensure everyone is well-hydrated.

We are so sorry to hear this news
Dave's passion for disability justice, in and beyond church, was an inspiration to so many
A 'thorn in the side' of institutions, he was never afraid to speak truth to power
He is now reunited with guide dog Jarvis
Our prayers for Denise 🙏

At long last they are advertising. This is an amazing job, with a civic ministry bigger than many cathedrals, a thriving congregation, and fantastic opportunities. Could you be the next Rector of Liverpool @LiverpoolParish? @LivDiocese pathways.churchofengland.org…

When being able to concentrate is precious, interruptions can be devastating - derailing concentration you might not be able to get back. Letting people know when you are in 'do not disturb' mode can help. #BrainFog #ExecutiveDysfunction #Hyperfocus

One of the new packs on our website is our pacing related cards - ones that can help people understand and accept our 'no' when relevant (you choose which ones to buy from the pack shortlist). Some of these are my most-used cards.

Sometimes chronic illness means not having the energy to socialise - but telling people to go away can be taken personally & cause offence. I find this card can help - whether placed nearby or kept handy ready to show anyone trying to interact.

We had a great time at our Staff Day and Day of Prayer last Tuesday. We came together to worship, hear some short talks and pray into the work of Torch Trust.
