What a glorious morning at St-Martin-in-the-Fields. Facebook reminded me this week it's been ten years since I first spoke at the Disability Conference. It's not a stretch to say this place has changed my life and the way I see my faith, my role in the church and my calling. Happy birthday.

I'm so proud & grateful to have been awarded the 2026 Rose Mary Crawshay prize for Textile Shakespeare, joining a roll-call of amazing women scholars and critics. At the ceremony last night I spoke about some of my foremothers as a NZer & a Cambridge Shakespearean, as well as my family.
