On #MaundyThursday Jesus knelt & washed the feet of his tired, weary & frightened travellers. He told them to love others in the same way that he showed them love. Not sure that meant get them 4,000 miles away, out of sight and mind.

.@RishiSunak will you make or break care? Older people and their carers need better care *now* not in 3+ years' time. Show them you care, give councils decent funding on 27th Oct. Without this care reform will fail. #SocialCareCantWait #DoesRishiReallyCare
A lovely Ordination day in Penrith @PmcMethodist feeling very blessed that we were finally able to go ahead after much uncertainty. Thankful to Richard Teal and Jill Baker for their hands and their words and to @GarethJHiggs for his support and encouragement. #ordination

Well done Bob. I sure you didn’t expect this when the Ecology department was set up in the late 80’s.

CravenCouncil @CravenCouncil It is to be hoped that CDC is regularly monitoring the nature and enormous amount of tip material at Hellifield Flashes. Compliance with CDM regs? #EnvAgency #CDMregs #saveourcravencountryside
634,334 people signed an @age_uk petition last year calling on the Prime Minister to save free #TVLicences and we still haven’t heard back. @BorisJohnson @10DowningStreet will you step in? #SwitchedOff #130days

‘If a medication existed which had a similar effect to physical activity [like walking], it would be regarded as a “wonder drug” or a “miracle cure”’ - England’s Chief Medical Officer, 2010. Get outdoors, take a walk and enjoy #FitnessDay. ramblers.org.uk/go-walking
