Over on B-*-sky these days. Same handle. Important not to forget Palestine and those still on the ground, trying to stay safe. Please donate a few quid via map.org.uk/ or to individual fundraisers, if you can. Cheers.

Largely over on the Sky place these days guys, but please donate to help Sanaa and Sujood get out of Gaza alive. Currently stranded in an impossible and very dangerous situation. Any help is good help. 👇👇 No more bombs. #CeasefireNOW

We are sharing our campaign again to remind you that we still need your help. The path to reach our goal is not too long, but it still requires your support. As I said before, these donations are no longer just helping us with evacuation fees, but are also helping us to live amidst the skyrocketing prices that are impossible to keep up with. Therefore, I would be grateful if you could continue to support me and my family. SHARE, DONATE, AND SPREAD THE Word ✌️

Thank you @IWA_Wales for asking me to envision a future where Welsh footpaths are truly public. #AccessForAll #NatureForAll

‘Equality in the outdoors does not involve tarmacking the countryside’ Bethany Handley envisions a future where access to nature is supported for all. #WalesIn2100 #thewelshagenda iwa.wales/agenda/2024/07/ima…

The excerpt is followed by the name of the author, Bethany Handley, and the title of the series: Wales in 2100. In the bottom right corner of the image are three logos, from left to right: the logo of the National Infrastructure Commission for Wales, the logo of the welsh agenda, the logo of the Institute of Welsh Affairs.

Another boost for Ahmed's friend Rasha, too. They're achingly close to the halfway point of their fundraising goal, and I'd love to see them hit it soon. 21 family members, including her heavily pregnant sisters, are trying to raise funds for evacuation. gofundme.com/f/htdcj-evacuat…
