About

An online journal for sharing good stuff I've come across, along with projects I'm working on, in the hope that you might like them too or at least find them interesting.

Elsewhere

 

Free & Equal advances gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender rights by seeding, supporting and linking sexuality rights defenders and their organizations.

 

The Global Campaign for Education  is an international coalition of nongovernment development and children’s rights organisations and education unions.

In the UK the Campaign works to increase community awareness of the state of education internationally and generate the political will necessary to ensure the UK plays an active and effective part in efforts to secure education for all.

 

I'm a trustee of Read: The Reading Agency, whose mission is to inspire more people to read more. Read works with public libraries, publishers, unions, businesses and broadcasters to support reading.

Read's Big Book Share supports prisoners choose a book and then make a recording of themselves reading it, which is then given to the prisoner’s children. Reading can help to keep the family bond strong and can help an imprisoned parent to be a positive role model to his or her children.
