Honoured to be at a parlimentary panel yesterday discussing Justice for Women and Girls. Holloway is a clear reminder justice reform must be trauma‑informed, rooted in lived experience. Delivery now matters. Met the lovely @sarakhyde too finally 😀 #JusticeReform

Marking St Cuthbert’s Day with a find from the River Wear: a late‑medieval pilgrim’s ampulla recovered during a dive beneath Elvet Bridge, Durham City. Stamped with a crowned ‘W’ and bearing distinct bite marks—material evidence of devotion and medieval pilgrimage...

[Gary Bankhead @GaryBankhead]

How amazing to have the three medieval ampulla I found in the River Wear - the only ones ever found in Durham City - to be professionally mounted and placed on display in my local museum 😝
