So delighted to get my amazing friend #EmmaSwan’s first book through the post from @waterstones.bsky.social. #CruiseShipKid is going to be huge! Great characters, unique setting, and a mystery to solve onboard. Fun for all the family #Booksky

Having been researching ‘restorative justice’ for my own work, it was exciting to see James Graham tackle it with such sensitivity and humour in ‘Punch’ at YV. Especially moving when the audience broke into spontaneous applause after one particular scene. Exciting to see theatre have such resonance
