Very stimulating AGM with @EldersNewcastle witnessing the variety of ways in which older people have a voice.

Very beautiful performance by the Ensemble @company_others at @EldersNewcastle AGM. The group meets at The Bricks, Walker on Mondays. Join them and enjoy something a bit different.

[COMPANY OF OTHERS @company_others]

Meet Company of Others Ensemble - our performing group of dancers aged 60+. 💃🏽🔥
They come through The Bricks every Monday to move freely in a judgment-free zone. Proof that dance has no limit!

This is almost my only contribution to the well planned Green media operation overnight 4/5 July.
I really don't know how we can get a fair share of media attention. We are radical, but with commonsense policies.
Sadly it seems that hateful, racist, rants are more interesting?

[Robert Saunders @redhistorian]

This was a classy speech by Sunak. As @Freedland says, we can no longer take for granted that leaders accept the results of elections, recognise their opponents as public servants & facilitate a peaceful transition of power.

A last act of democratic service - & one that matters.

We spotted one of our age-positive signs at the @buildingcentre 'Keep on the Grass: The Language of Signs' exhibition!

It's great to see age-positive imagery being used in the real world, especially on everyday signage.

Last day of my 20s.
Last day at The NT.

It feels like the beginning, not the end. Onwards 💜

The first day of the @The_RHS #ChelseaFlowerShow seems a good day to recall #OctaviaHill's argument that we all need beauty in our buildings and our streets for our souls and our bodies. This ...

It was brilliant to visit @UniofNewcastle’s Health Innovation Neighbourhood site & meet with @JDurhamUK @janeerobinson97 & the team working on this world leading project in preventative public health & creating community wellbeing.

[Barbara Douglas @BarbaraDNcle]

Amazing!

[Mustard Stories Arts CIC @MustardStories_]

What an amazing evening. The first reading of A Seat At The Table!

We are so proud of our community cast and so thankful to everyone who made yesterday possible. Such a pleasure to work with @NoMoreNowt on our very first theatre project and we can’t wait for its future! 🪑

[Paulette Hamilton MP @PauletteHamilto]

Last week, I joined the #SafeHomesNow campaign launch led by @Ageing_Better in Parliament.

We should all feel proud, safe and secure at home. Yet too many people are living in homes that damage their health.

We need a national plan to fix unsafe homes and improve lives!
