This #RaceEqualityWeek we shared lots of experiences and resources at @bloodcancer_uk. But I reflect that I spend more time thinking about equality than acting in defence of it. I need to be A LOT more intentional and vocal. My promises: https://t.co/wqktVO6ytw @RaceEquality_UK

3. Get comfortable with not knowing everything
4. Give expert voices a platform
5. Use internal experts
6. Act now, not later

@Adam02144644 What will be on Centre and Court 1 on Days 8 and 9 (next Mon/Tue) - is it Men’s & Women’s 4th round, round of 16s, quarter finals and semi finals? Just trying to understand the schedule/order of play but ot doesn’t really say what’s on what court!

[Abi Howse @AbigailHowse]

@Adam02144644 How come it’s easy to get when it’s the finals? Because everyone wants to watch Centre Court and not Court 1?

[Abi Howse @AbigailHowse]

@WimbledonAlerts @WimbledonAlerts @Adam02144644 How soon do you think some tickets for next week from Monday might come online? They all seem to be for same day or next day and I can’t go without more notice than that! Maybe I will just book Monday off work now, and then just aim for that day.

[Abi Howse @AbigailHowse]

@Adam02144644 I’m just hoping they release some for next week as I can’t have a day off with no notice!

[Abi Howse @AbigailHowse]

@Adam02144644 Seem to be able to get any other tickets into basket but Centre court middle Sunday - constantly says No longer available

[Abi Howse @AbigailHowse]

@Adam02144644 Once we’ve left the waiting room and are in, and clicked on Middle Sunday, where it then says ‘none left’ rather than the option to add to basket - is this the page we must keep refreshing (the actual Middle Sunday page)? Or do you have to go back further to refresh/try again?

[Abi Howse @AbigailHowse]

@Adam02144644 How does Ticketmaster work - it just says no events on the Wimbledon page?

[Abi Howse @AbigailHowse]

@500chrisjones Oh right! Yes they were really great years for me too!
