Well Microsoft is off line, it appears. But people laugh when Shanice our fabulous Office Manager, tries to not have me doing much of anything on the 13th day of every month, if possible.
(I am jinked with regards to the 13th.) We do not even use 13 on our invoices, as they will always be the one that we have to chase to be paid.

Well today is Friday the 13th. So our calendar stated -
'MICHELE DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING'
Well answering emails and a teams call to support a candidate to complete his course, shouldn't be an issue!!

EXCEPT Microsoft appears to be DOWN. Sorry everyone who is affected by this, it may be me who jinked it 🙁

This is an amazing place. Please share to anyone you think could benefit from there support.Our Women’s Project has nine spaces available from January 2027.

Are you, or someone you know, looking for a safe and supportive environment to move forward from challenging life circumstances?

Based in a women-only house within the beautiful grounds of our Ditchingham community, the Women’s Project supports nine women who are experiencing challenges including:
• Sexual violence
• Domestic abuse
• Coercive control
• Homelessness
• Living in temporary accommodation
• Considering leaving an unsafe living situation

Each woman has her own room, and we can consider pets. Our trauma-informed approach provides therapeutic support tailored to individual needs, including programmes focused on awareness and recovery from domestic abuse and sexual violence, alongside workshops led by creative practitioners.

Participants can also develop new skills through creative workshops and gain valuable work experience within our three on-site businesses.

Throughout the year, each woman is supported to explore their aspirations and plan their next steps.

Our aim is to empower women to build resilience, develop confidence and create a positive future for themselves.

Interested in finding out more or applying for a place? Visit the link in our bio for further information about the Women’s Project and how to apply. Please share this post to help us reach women who may benefit from this opportunity. ... See MoreSee Less

Wellness Wednesday – A Moment to Reflect ❤️

This Wellness Wednesday falls on Remembrance Day, a time to pause, reflect and remember those who have served and sacrificed.

It’s also an opportunity to recognise the importance of looking after one another, particularly those who may be living with the physical or emotional effects of their experiences.

Sometimes, simply taking the time to listen, show kindness or check in on someone can make a difference to their wellbeing.

Today, we remember, reflect and give thanks.

Lest We Forget. 🌹💙

I'm super excited to have had a call with Andrea from Women Talking Fire today, exploring how we might turn an idea that's developed through lots of discussions with women's organisations into something genuinely useful! 🔥

Through my work with CICs, charities and women's refuges at SHE does safety, we've recognised a need for greater choice when it comes to arranging essential fire safety work, maintenance and repairs.

For women and children who have experienced trauma, having the option of a female contractor can make a real difference.

So, we're looking to bring together a network of female tradespeople and fire safety professionals who might be interested in supporting women's refuges and safe accommodation.

We're thinking fire alarm engineers, fire door specialists, electricians, plumbers, heating engineers, general maintenance and everything in between!

I'm starting with my connections across East Anglia, but there's potential for this to grow much further.

We'd love to hear from women who might be interested in getting involved.

If that's you, or you know someone who might be interested, please do get in touch or tag them below!
