PEI represents all who work to inspire appreciation and build knowledge of the polar regions, their connectedness to all Earth’s systems, and their importance to all humans across latitudes and cultures. A PEI member is anyone who is interested in making the poles accessible, promoting understanding and stewardship of the polar regions, and seeking to grow polar literacy by communicating polar science to the world. Goals COMMUNICATE: Develop a robust, flexible, and trusted international presence COLLABORATE: Grow and strengthen the PEI network and its relationships CREATE: Provide relevant and timely opportunities for both education and scientific communities Polar Educators International's core strengths of communication, collaboration, & creation are how we connect the qualities of scientific and educational organizations, defining our unique position which allows us to provide a deeper understanding of current polar sciences to a global audience. Core Values CREDIBLE: Experience and knowledge build a robust scientific foundation which can be trusted by our audiences and partners WELCOMING: Diverse backgrounds and perspectives encouraging an accessible and empowered community agreeing to grow together PASSIONATE: A shared belief in the power of education motivates our drive to communicate the importance of the polar regions DEDICATED: Commitment to effective advocacy drives our efforts and resources for polar knowledge and action Strategic Plan The Strategic Plan was drafted by a working group in late 2019 and was later approved by the Council and Executive Committee. The Plan outlines PEI's short and long-term (5-year) goals but is an ever-evolving document reflecting the goals. It is intended to grow and change along with the organization.

The Healthy Muslimah Company

A HEALTHY MUSLIMAH SADAQAH JARIYAH PROJECT THIS IS NOT A BOOK ABOUT SUNNAH FOOD! "Then and Now is an eye-opening look at how food has changed since the time of the Prophet, ﷺ how it's affecting us and most importantly, what we can do to take back our health." A Note from the Author and Founder of Healthy Muslimah New beginnings and Sadaqah Jariyah... As salaamu aleikum was rahmatulah was barrakhatu, welcome! When I first started Healthy Muslimah and wrote Then and Now, it was a time when health and wellness content was still relatively scarce in the Muslim online space. Alhamdullilah, over the years, this space has grown and there are now many beautiful and beneficial health platforms serving our global community. As you may (or may not) know, earlier this year (2022), I made the challenging decision to 'retire' Healthy Muslimah in a bid to 'practice what I preach' - namely, "simplification", knowing that by trying to manage multiple platforms, I was spread thin and not able to serve anyone to the best of my ability. Alhamdullilah, I have fully transitioned to a single focus and single platform, Finding Sakeenah - A Journey to Tranquility Through Simplicity, helping sisters navigate the noise of this modern world, reduce overwhelm and make space for change, one small and simple step at a time, closing one chapter so that I could open another. However, Healthy Muslimah is my baby and will always be near to my heart. The Healthy Muslimah page was a pioneer for its time and something I wanted to continue to serve sisters. 'hands free'. Alhamdulillah, Allah is the Best of Planners and provided a way for the platform to do just that, in such a way I could never have imagined. The Book, an ongoing Sadaqah Jariyah Project - May Allah reward all the sisters who contributed - Then and Now will continue to be available on this site, for FREE download.

The Orry Mill

the orry mill

Glasgow

The name ‘The Orry Mill’ refers to the open space in Eaglesham known as ‘The Orry’ (Old Scots for 'area') in which there are the remains of a cotton mill. The mill and the village were designed by Lord Alexander Eglinton, but built by his brother Archibald. The Eglinton family were responsible for a series of cotton mills and key agricultural developments throughout the late 18th and early 19th Century. The area of Busby, Eaglesham, Clarkston and Newton Mearns as small villages all had water powered cotton mills, and this drove the development of these villages, the buildings, geography and layout as we see it now. The Orry Mill was started simply to be a lovely wee shop that sought to share our love of crafting and colour with the local community. The shop was to be more than a retail outlet, a place to visit and spend time in, to leave having learnt something new, or to have found something that inspired you just a little bit. We wanted to have a shop that was full of colour, where you would be surrounded by quality vibrant yarn, yet also be a calming, inspiring and tactile place where we curate a range of lovely things for people to craft with, and to provide support and advice to create something at a pace that suits you. The wider benefits of crafting are a given to all those that are already passionate about it, and there is real-world evidence that taking time to craft and develop your practice, is beneficial to your health. It creates ‘head-space’ to reflect, focus and quiet the busy mind in our unsettled times. These deliberate pauses we carve out for ourselves can be nurturing for body and mind and if we can help to encourage and support creating the time, space, and tools to do that, then that would make us very happy indeed.

Ey Matters

London

Why EY Matters? My love affair with the Early Years sector began back in 2011 when I started working with Laura Henry, and through my work with her I started to connect with other Early Years Professionals. During 2013, I supported Laura with her vision of creating an organisation for the Trainers and Consultants of the sector, by organising the first meetings, the first survey and collating the results. Out of this vision NEyTCO was born. Launched in 2014 at the House of Commons, NEYTCO - National Early Years Trainers and Consultants - brought together experts in the sector to offer mutual support for trainers and consultants and a one-stop-shop for early years settings, local authorities, schools and others. In 2017, at the invitation of the CEO, Catriona Nason, I started working closely with NEyTCO, looking at the member experience, finding ways to improve the membership offering and also promoting the members and the organisation, but sadly in the current climate, NEyTCO was unable to survive and closed in October 2018. After receiving the devastating news that NEyTCO was unable to continue trading, I thought long and hard about what this would mean for the sector and then came up with the idea that the new Twitter Chat (#EYMatters) I had introduced a few weeks earlier in September could perhaps be utilised in some way to support Early Years Professionals to continue connecting, communicating and collaborating. With this in mind, I formed a new company EY Matters Ltd with the sole purpose of providing the platform to support the sense of community that has been building over the past few months between the NEyTCO Members and other individuals, companies and areas within the sector. I should stress, this is a separate venture from my main business, Virtual Support UK Ltd, where I still provide support and administration services to the sector on a Pay-per-Minute basis!
