2 great wee Zoom meetings today, 1 with KHL Big Local and 1 with Kingswood Neighbourhood Association. Great to keep the community connections going but also mindful it could be easy to get "Zoomed" out and rest is really important. @TimMorton2 @kategroundwork Keep moving forward.

A little mantle shelf gallery of empty toilet rolls. Who knew they came in such different shapes and sizes. More to come when more stock available. #poorart

Sunset from the cliffs on the Lizard Peninsular in Cornwall, I’ve shared this one a few times but it always seems to lift my spirts. Take care & hope you’re all doing ok.

It’s relatively niche but how about #punkrockmidnight ? Each night I’ll delve into my scratched spirals of late 70’s singles and offer a snatch of a nostalgic gem . Google to hear the whole thing . So here’s #1 , a real beauty . . . #theadverts #gayeadvert #tvsmith

.@GretaThunberg is right: we are currently failing our nation's youth by not taking swift action to combat the climate crisis. We owe it to them to stand up to polluters and stop poisoning our planet.

Great article on the importance of community: "The only metric of success that really matters is the one we ignore" qz.com/1570179/ via @qz @SembleUK

Something that we at Groundwork know to be true. The positive benefit that 'green therapy' and social prescribing can have on communities is endless for both our physical and mental wellbeing 👇 #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek theguardian.com/society/2019…

We wish our Joint CEOs Chris and Ann a fond farewell as they leave us after an amazing 36 years total service with NDAS. We would like to thank them for the massive impact they have had on our organisation and on the lives of many families affected by domestic abuse.
