Good to join @atwjackson & @TomOleary72 & colleagues @nationaltrust @Buzz_dont_tweet @HistEnvForum @f_ben87 to hear about #Superbloom at @HRP_palaces @TowerOfLondon - a new park for London & an appropriate, ecologically friendly & beautiful moat for our times. More pics 👇 ImageImageImageImage
Loving the colour mixes & the sculptures. There’s also a slide & soundscape. @TowerOfLondon ImageImageImageImage
One for #Frockingfabulous - the Queen’s garden for the #PlatinumJubilee was designed based on the Queen’s coronation dress. #Superbloom ImageImageImage
Various seed mixes add patches of different colour & height. #Superbloom ImageImageImageImage
Particularly loved the areas where small mounds added wave-like height & relief. #Superbloom ImageImageImageImage
A final visit also with the wonderful @f_ben87 who leaves @HistEnvForum this week - certainly a metaphor for the legacy she leaves with the team of a transformed new model forum. We will miss you Fran. #Superbloom @TowerOfLondon ImageImageImage

Day 2 @ACEVO - today we are online. Some opening reflections from Rebecca Wilkinson summing up yesterday. Resilience isn’t always ploughing on - it’s taking time to think. Supporting those we serve & also looking after ourselves.
None of us want to be ‘seagull leaders’. Make quick decisions, delegate, take time out. Bad governance isn’t caused by spreadsheets. It’s caused by human relationships. The importance of collective courage in challenging times.
The first session today we are hearing Jane Ide in conversation with @SarabajayaKumar - on redefining legitimacy. Who decides? Accountability without power isn’t real accountability. We need to think about power balances. We need to think about accountability to beneficiaries.

Joining the @ACEVO Leadership conference this morning. CEO Jane kicks off alongside sponsors. We are encouraged to not only listen to what leaders say but also reflect on what they mean. There is a warmth & collaboration in our charity sector that is unparalleled elsewhere. Image
Session one - focused on collective courage beyond crisis mode. We talk about authenticity & connection but everyday it is hard to achieve this. Need space like today. Acutely aware of the societal challenges in the UK at present - especially for inclusion of all communities. Image
Image
How do we work together to combat the torrent of nonsense that keeps getting thrown at us? Says @MsIbegbuna - we are asked to demonstrate courage as leaders. When are those moments that we can dig a bit deeper?

A treat to join our @Heritage_NGOs member @PSSAtweets for @MarshAwards for public sculpture. David Aaronovitch talks to begin about past art, past politics. There are some important perhaps unobserved mosaics in public buildings. 1928-33 mosaics added to floor of NG. V&A too. Image
Image
Image
We need to remember to look down at floors! Boris Anrep included many muses in mosaic art. Some private art of past is now public art. Public art piques interest - allows us to pull threads & see where they go. Defiance for eg is shape of a swastika & wears a papal crown. Why? Image
Shortlist for @MarshAwards for excellence in public sculpture Image
