The third recording is of conversation between Amanda Parker and Dr Cecilia Wee on ‘What do we do when things go wrong?’- exploring the relationship between equity and the stories we tell ourselves and our peers about success, risk and how we learn.

Unfortunately our session on Disability and Governance with Tim Wheeler failed to record. In June 2022 Tim Wheeler published the report ‘’Place/s at the Table’: A review of disability and governance in the Cultural Sector’, exploring the benefits and barriers to the involvement of D/deaf, disabled and neurodivergent people as board members within the arts and cultural sector, commissioned by Clore Leadership.
