I'm now looking for more people who've had experience of the UK Spouse VISA process. Please can you DM me with a brief overview of your story and let me know if you are free to speak for 15-20 mins today or tomorrow about it on Zoom? Thank you!

🎉 Today marks the final day of training for our 19 Channel 4 Content Creative trainees! Over the past 8 weeks, they've explored everything from audio production to digital campaigns. As a course producer, I wish I had such a programme when I started my media journey in 2002!

@headlinerapp_ is your app down? Seems unresponsive this afternoon, taking ages to save audio when making an audiogram for me and my team!

Excited to kick off @Channel4's Content Creatives scheme in Leeds today with 19 trainees! This paid training & placement opportunity helps people from lower socio-economic backgrounds launch careers in media. Big thanks to @SharpFutures for the training.

Nine in 10 working-class parents steer their kids away from creative careers like film and TV, favouring traditional jobs instead. The arts need to be more accessible to everyone, regardless of background. #WorkingClassVoices #CreativeCareers

So sorry to hear about the passing of @stevesilberman, the brilliant mind behind *NeuroTribes*. It was an honour to interview him back in 2020. His work has left an indelible mark on the world. You can listen to our conversation here:
