Water is life, not a luxury. When greed controls nature, rivers run dry, forests disappear, wildlife dies, and families are left with nothing. Profit should never come before people or the planet. The choices we make today will decide who has a future tomorrow.

I visited Ruskin Mill in Nailsworth today. I had a coffee in the cafe and viewed the magnificent exhibition of paintings. I’m currently researching Saint Sara-le-Kali and the Black Madonna so found the religious paintings hugely inspiring.

‘Birds and Ghosts’ by Jess Richards is a sensitive and creative examination of loneliness, bereavement, and difference. Taking in our need to grieve, the Covid lockdowns, and a late autism diagnosis, this memoir also features the author’s beautiful artwork. It will stay with me for a long time.
