On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Jon Rey-Hastie was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) when he was three years old and has gradually lost muscle function over time. He is now almost paralysed and relies on a ventilator to breathe. A patient advocate and activist, he made a documentary about a journey around the UK and Europe to meet other adults living with DMD.
Jon has a PhD in Government from the University of Sussex. He is co-founder and CEO of DMD Pathfinders, a user led organisation of adults living with Duchenne which provides advice, guidance and support for other teenagers and adults living with the condition. He sits on the NHS England Strategic Co-production Group for Personalised Care, and is the Chair of Trustees of Possibility People, a user led organisation of disabled people in Sussex.
