The Skies We’re Under

Whether a well seasoned parent, newbie, one of many practitioners supporting families or simply someone wanting to peak over the fence - you’re welcome to listen in. We are better together, whatever Skies We’re Under.

It is not long until we get the chance to vote in the general election and this week on the podcast we chat about how we might be able to raise our collective voices with Rina and Lauren from the brilliant F**king Normal Podcast.
They imagine what they’d like to say to the powers that be, how invisible the lives of disabled people are, and the need for accessible child care for working parents (especially mothers who still carry the majority of the mental load).
We’d love to hear from you – we love sharing stories, we love hearing how things are going, the good, the bad, the snotty-crying ugly.
