Critically appraising the cass report: methodological flaws and unsupported claims - BMC Medical Research Methodology Background The Cass Review aimed to provide recommendations for the delivery of services for gender diverse children and young people in England. The final product of this project, the Cass report, re...

Our methodological critique of The Cass Review has been peer-reviewed published & is therefore way more authoritative than Cass which is un-peer-reviewed.

the cautious academic,
who lives in another country,

her conference plans
for traveling

or about getting sick,
and after a quiet moment
she responded: yes.

Hounded! As a cover story (told by and about "gender critical" feminists)

I wrote this yesterday before I heard the news about Sussex being fined £585,000 by the higher education regulator OfS led by Arif Ahmed (what a confirmation of bias!) and the repetition of that old cover story, 'Hounded.'

Hope it helps. Killjoy solidarity!

I wish PhDs had snow days

An advertisement for a co-creation workshop in shades of green. Text reads 'Have you supported a family member, partner or friend after they experienced sexual violence and abuse? Join our workshops to co-create resources to help people providing informal support to survivors of sexual violence and abuse. For more information call/text/WhatsApp Sarah on 07724004297 or email wests13@coventry.ac.uk

Workshops are open to people of any gender, age 18+ who live in the UK, with lived experience of sexual violence and abuse. co-creation involves working as a group to decide how to respond to issues. We'll focus on future actions and you don't have to share your personal experiences, just your views and ideas.

Following a successful first workshop with survivors I'm currently planning an online session for people who have supported survivors, or received a disclosure of sexual violence or sexual abuse. Get in touch to find out more wests13@coventry.ac.uk or # in image
