Family Time: I had a wonderful day yesterday with my son, Brandon. ❤️ He had such a difficult start in life and has overcome so many obstacles, including leukaemia. The young man he has become inspires me every day. He is intelligent, creative and endlessly fascinating, and I will always be incredibly proud to be his mam. Yesterday, he introduced us to the work of Kane Pixels and explained how he developed his interpretation of The Backrooms. We watched some of Kane’s earlier footage while Brandon enthusiastically talked us through the story, ideas and filmmaking behind it. Brandon loves everything connected to creepypasta, horror and mysterious online worlds, and I love seeing how passionate and knowledgeable he becomes when discussing the things that interest him. I had missed him and my parents so much. I have been exceptionally busy and working incredibly hard behind the scenes, so this much-needed family catch-up meant the world to me. We also enjoyed a lovely meal together at The...

Good Food, Beautiful Views and Lovely Service at The New Board Inn:

Good Food, Beautiful Views and Lovely Service at The New Board Inn: Today, we visited The New Board Inn Pub & Restaurant, and it was exactly the kind of peaceful and enjoyable experience I needed. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly kind, polite and helpful. We were made to feel welcome straight away, and the friendly service added so much to the experience. Nothing felt like too much trouble, and we were treated with genuine warmth throughout our visit. We had a lovely table beside the windows, with beautiful views stretching across the surrounding countryside. There is something especially calming about enjoying good food while looking out over open fields beneath a bright summer sky. The food was beautifully presented, with generous portions and plenty of choice. Our table included crispy battered fish with chunky chips and mushy peas, golden potato wedges with dips, prawns served with fresh greens and lemon, soup with bread, and a colourful salad alongside a c...

My Boundaries Are Not Up for Debate:

My Boundaries Are Not Up for Debate: I will not apologise for safeguarding others, setting boundaries or asking for accountability. I do not tolerate bullying, victim-blaming or harmful behaviour. My focus is on my personal growth, my goals and supporting others — and I strongly recommend that others focus on their own lives rather than shaming people for speaking about harm. As a disabled and AuDHD woman, I carved out my own space in a world that often made me feel unwelcome. I found my people, built communities of my own and developed values that I stand by. I will not be bullied, manipulated or coerced into allowing unsafe individuals, toxic organisations or harmful behaviour into the spaces I have worked so hard to create. My safe spaces matter, and so does the safety of the people within them. I will protect every safe space I have built — fiercely. Had the behaviour towards me not been as serious as it was, I would have been perfectly willing to support and promote any organisati...

I Emailed the Prime Minister to Demand Action on Systemic Ableism:

I Emailed the Prime Minister to Demand Action on Systemic Ableism I emailed our Prime Minister because I can already see disabled people being targeted. Our community deserves to be supported—not blamed, punished or harmed further. Disabled people face entrenched barriers in employment, higher living costs and persistent discrimination, yet public debate too often treats us as the problem. This is what I sent: " Dear Prime Minister, I am writing to urge your government to take meaningful action against systemic ableism and create stronger incentives for employers to recruit, retain and promote disabled people. Disabled people continue to encounter significant barriers to employment, including inaccessible recruitment processes, discrimination, inadequate workplace adjustments and assumptions about our abilities. Even when disabled people secure paid employment, many experience lower pay and fewer opportunities for progression. Disability also brings substantial additional living c...

Sunflower Lanyard Matters:

"Should people really have to verify they're disabled by wearing a sunflower lanyard?" Me: No, but considering some people seem to think my walking stick is a fashion accessory, it doesn't hurt to remind people that they can't diagnose invisible conditions, fractures, dislocations, internal swelling, or any other medical condition with their eyes. People can be incredibly ignorant. If wearing a Sunflower Lanyard helps remind others that not every disability is visible and encourages a little more patience and respect, then that's no bad thing. Respect shouldn't have to be earned by proving you're disabled, but until society stops judging people by appearances, anything that helps challenge those assumptions has value.

Nova Consilia Centre:

Re: Nova Consilia Centre: I can't honestly support this start-up organisation due to a direct conflict of interest. The organisation's founder is involved in an ongoing police-reported cyberstalking and harassment matter concerning me. As saddening as this is, safeguarding always has to come first. To avoid a conflict of interest and in the interests of safeguarding, I cannot approve or promote content relating to this organisation. Thank you for your understanding. Sarah Wingfield Actor • Author • Advocate KawaiiDollDecora.uk #safeguarding #community #novaconsilia #darlington Alt text: A cropped screenshot of a Facebook post preview from the Nova Consilia Centre page, shared by CJC Barbers. The preview headline reads, "HELP US OPEN DARLINGTON'S COMMUNITY CAFÉ" in large bold text, surrounded by coffee cup and sparkle emojis. A blue "Join" button appears beside the page name at the top. UPDATE: for clarification: To those angry-reacting or laughing—which ...
