The RNLI has increased security measures after staff and volunteers faced online and in-person abuse, threats, and harassment linked to their role in rescuing people crossing the English Channel. Volunteers have reportedly been advised not to wear RNLI-branded clothing in some circumstances, and police and private security have been involved around locations including the RNLI’s headquarters in Poole.

Below is our advice for the public around online misinformation and bullying:
• Do not share allegations, images or posts about individuals or organisations unless you have checked them against a reliable source.
• Treat emotionally charged content and claims that appear designed to provoke anger with caution.
• Do not join online pile-ons, publish personal information or encourage others to confront staff or volunteers.
• Report threats, targeted harassment and abusive content to the platform; report credible threats to the police.
• Keep screenshots, URLs, usernames and timestamps if you need to make a report.
• Remember that reposting false claims can amplify harm even when you did not create the original content.

I personally condemn the awful behaviour being displayed towards the RNLI and hope that the abuse towards the staff and charity ends soon so they can continue their brilliant work of saving lives at sea. – Ronald Alistair Barr, Cyberhood Watch Dorset ambassador

Today's a fun one; I'm in London for a couple of days and managed to sneak in a trip to my favourite cat cafe! Going to appointments and getting work done is always better after stroking some kitties!

Autumn is my favourite time of year and I'm starting this September off strong with a wide variety of events!

Beginning this week with a trip to Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London for a top surgery follow up appointment, I'll be ready to start my studies with The Open University with module websites going live.

Next week The Outsiders Project starts up again at TOSH. I’ll also be attending two volunteer events; an in person IAG meeting for Dorset Police and a Neighbourhood Watch online session hosted by Age UK.

To finish off the month, I’ll be receiving training at a Deepfake AI Workshop run by Cyberhood Watch and Deep Truth Project.

Did you know that you can have your say about police reform?

As part of the Government’s police reform agenda, proposals have been put forward that could see the existing structure of 43 police forces reduced.

You have until 7th September to share your thoughts to Dorset Police about the police force merger.

Today is another look behind the scenes; after crafting a proposal document and presentation with other The Open University students for Balfour Beatty's School of the Future event, I'm now turning our group work into a video documenting our school design process.

I'm ecstatic to announce that I've been offered a position to join The Open University's WELS-FASS Virtual Student Internship program this October!

It's been increasingly difficult finding work these past few years between the increased competition and the reducing of junior roles; I'm incredibly lucky to have been offered an internship and can't wait to see which of the OU's upcoming projects I'll be working on during the next academic year...

Initially I was going to take just business-related modules during my degree but after taking some time to re-evaluate, I’ve realised that there's no point in taking subjects I think employers and clients will want to see and focus instead on the topics I'm actually passionate about! This October I'll finally be taking my first Creative Writing module with The Open University and intend to follow it up with the Level 3 Advanced Creative Writing module when the time comes! I can't wait to get stuck in, especially as I work towards getting more of my own works published in the coming year...

I've always struggled with job interviews; while I have no problem hyping up other people and their work, I've never felt comfortable doing the same for myself! While preparing to discuss a role I’m really excited about, I’ve tried identifying my personal strengths and reasons why I’m a solid candidate.
