We’ve just the balm you need for December with this month’s CreativeMornings/Derby speaker Clare Francis-Slater.

Clare is an educator, she has worked mainly in primary schools, but also within many other educational settings including secondary schools, colleges and universities for over twenty years. She is now a freelancer.

She is an educational consultant and has founded her own consultancy organisation ‘Diversity Days Everyday’ which supports other organisations to be more inclusive and embed diversity. She has worked with many local schools, The University of Derby, DTSA (Developing Teachers Schools Academies), the NHS, Leeds City of Culture 2023 and The Arts Council on various projects, creating multi-media work, speaking at events and creating podcasts.

She is a writer and the author of ‘The Little Book of Balm for the Broken Soul’, which was published earlier this year. Clare started to write her ‘Little Book of Balm for the Broken Soul’ after having been diagnosed with breast cancer in 2018 and recovering. It was the kind of book she would have wanted to read to support her recovery and help her cope with the trauma she experienced. Clare Francis-Slater lives in Derbyshire where she grew up, with her family – her husband, two teenage children, a dog, two cats, and her chickens!
