Does anyone have a solid contact inside the Department of Magical Transportation?

[WARD to MONTROSE ALL]

My family has expressed interest in coming out to the Wigtown match on Sunday. I believe some of you may have met them at the Solstice Sprint. They have a limited working knowledge of the sport, but want to come see me play to support me. Especially as they are not able to join me in Sweden.

My father is an engineer and will bore anyone and everyone with maths and physics questions about quidditch. It also my niece’s first birthday. She is adorable and may steal your birthday thunder, Florrie. I am sorry.

[WARD to AUGUSTUS PYE]

Pye, I had an interesting meeting the other day with Fraser Macmillan. I had asked if the Macmillan Foundation would be willing to support a Mental Health Practice at the Montrose Free Clinic, specializing in War Trauma. There is a lack of training programs and specialists to treat the issues are facing as a community and I think this could be a solid solution.

I know you deal in the other kind of trauma, but can you think of anyone who might be interested to sit on a committee to make this happen or even serve as director?

This is just in the idea phase right now, but there is momentum. I want to capitalize.
[//WARD to AUGUSTUS PYE]



[WARD to MONTE & JUSTIN]

I met with Fraser Macmillan on behalf of Montrose ownership and the Macmillan Foundation. Uplift is going to be entering into a partnership with them, hopefully to start a mental health practice at the Montrose Free Clinic. I think we can all agree that this is something we need.

I have also asked that someone either among ownership or BIQL publicly come out against what happened with Flint.

If you feel comfortable, I would appreciate if you accepted the invitation. I think it could give a good amount of weight to our movement.
[//WARD to MONTE & JUSTIN]



[WARD to DUNBAR]

I have been having some interesting conversations. What do you think QUABBLE can do to address hostile work environments in the league? Specifically with bullying among players. The Flint incident is not an isolated event, but surely there needs to be policy in place. Thoughts? Anything in the works?

Retired Royal Engineer. More specifically electrical & mechanical draughtsman. My brother has the same training, but has a little more nuance, while my father is just fascinated by trying to figure out the physics of magic.

I am happy to assist, and indeed offer my own experiences with the lack of mental health services in the wizarding world. If it wasn't for finding a sister of a muggleborn psychiatrist when I was twelve.... Things need to change.

That is certainly the goal here. I know I was lucky when I found my therapist after Azkaban, and I wouldn't be doing as well if not for the work he's made me do.

From what I can tell Fraser has a good head on his shoulders and is willing to be part of that change engine. It will be a good partnership for us to grow. However, I am also aware that it might come in conflict with your Banchory bid. Although then again, it could be good to get to know other owners and win them over.

I've shared my birthday celebrations most all my life; I'll be happy to include your niece this year. If she and her parents want to come down to the tent, I might find some sweets that are infant-appropriate.

I still want my no-injury match. No infant is getting you out of that.

My brother might actually want to be in the stands, in the thick of it. However, thank you for the invitation. From the sound of it, you will have a full box this match.

Nicole mostly likes things that are squishy and messy. More importantly, Eliza likes white cake with chocolate frosting, and sometimes the wishes of the mother wins out.

She is also quite into her monkey plushie. She is delighted into anything that makes sounds, more so if they are animal sounds. And blocks - both for building and chewing on.

I think long term the goal would be someone who could eventually train people in the UK, so more experience would be beneficial. Mostly? I would like the right person for the job, someone who believes in the mission.

To be honest, that ball is in the BIQL's court, and they ought to be the ones doing something about it... or they bloody well should be.

That said if they're just sitting on their hands hoping it'll just all blow over or be swept under the rug... well, then (either way) QUABBLE can certainly help out with bringing in a policy that proactively protects players but would also punish those that go against it. We don't currently have anything solid in the works. However, even before the Flint incident, and more so since, I've had people at the office looking into the matter and what we can do to make sure it doesn't happen again, or in the event that it does that there are consequences to that. Unfortunately, it's not something that's going to be magically changed overnight - as much as we might wish it could be.

One of the interesting conversations I had was with Fraser Macmillan. He essentially told me their hands might be tied until the next quarterly meeting.

I think we are making headway in getting public and fan buy in. This might be a good opportunity for QUABBLE to publicly weigh in? It might put more pressure on ownership and BIQL to take action.
