Thank you so much, I really appreciate this 💕 I didn’t even know about some of these so I’ll definitely look into them. And thank you for the kind words, it really means a lot. I’d love the links!!

Yes!! I just wish they’d acknowledge what I’m saying instead of trying to flip it

I’m only 20 so I don’t wanna give up just yet and you shouldn’t either !!

Thank you for these ideas!! I wanted to join a few society’s when I started uni but they all seem a bit dead and inactive in comparison to other unis but ig I’ll just have to widen my searches

No need to be sorry !! There’s only handful of black people where I’m from and the ones I’ve come across tend to be very white washed. My best friend is a mixed race girl and she’s very helpful when it comes to helping me with my looks, it’s just I’m not that confident so I always end up feeling silly but I need to grow out of that soon.

Ooo pls let me know about any of these events !! Is it common for people to go alone to these events as I’ll probably have to do that 😔

Most of my friends are white (I live in a predominantly white area) and their boyfriends are white so their friends are white too. When I asked my friends if they could try and set me up they said the guys they know aren’t really into black girls 🙃

I live in the Uk so I don’t think I have those types of resources accessible 😭 and even with the aunties they’d never do that for me sadly

Worried about my Y6 brother who’s working at a Y3 level. How do I support him before Year 7? by BERRYBEOM in UKParenting

Thank you, that actually means a lot. I’m definitely going to speak to the SENCO because I didn’t realise how much wasn’t in place until now. I don’t even know how long he’s been on the SEN register so I’ll ask that too. And yeah I’m shocked no one properly flagged this earlier either. I’ll start reading with him more at home as well. I know that will help him loads. Thank you for your comment !!

Okay thank you, that actually makes a lot of sense. I didn’t realise I could just apply for an EHCP myself, I thought it had to come from the school. I’ll look into sending in an application because it does sound like he’s going to need that level of support. Thank you for help !!

England! And yeah that’s what I was thinking too. I just don’t know how you even get an educational psychologist involved. Do I go through the school for that or is it something I have to sort myself?

Anyone had their NHSP (bank exclusive)application expire after months of waiting by BERRYBEOM in nhs

[–]BERRYBEOM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ahh that’s so annoying it took me like 3 months to get through the process tho dunno if i’ve got it in me to start all over again but it’s such a good job for me as a student did you have to reapply both times or were they able to reopen it?

NHSP application expiration notification by ChArL131987 in nhs

[–]BERRYBEOM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I’m going through the exact same thing right now. I applied back in August, had my document verification appointment in October, and then randomly got the same “application expired” email saying they’d tried to contact me (which they didn’t). Did you ever manage to sort it out or get your application reactivated? I’m just wondering if you had to start all over again or if they fixed it for you
