CELEBRATIONS November 2024
The year isn't quite over yet! Let's take a look at what our members have to celebrate...
Congratulations to Fiona Linday who has just self-published an inclusive text called Who Cares About Superheroes. This book compliments Fiona's creative mentor role with care experienced children through The Mighty Creatives charity. Fiona says:
"I raise awareness of split families, normalising Foster care and helping those children identify with my characters."
Congratulations Fiona!
Please check out Fiona's website for further details:
Fiona has used her experience of working with care experienced children to create this text

No comments:
We love comments and really appreciate the time it takes to leave one.
Interesting and pithy reactions to a post are brilliant but we also LOVE it when people just say they've read and enjoyed.
We've made it easy to comment by losing the 'are you human?' test, which means we get a lot of spam. Fortunately, Blogger recognises these, so most, if not all, anonymous comments are deleted without reading.
