EXHIBITION: See Looking to the Light at @Glenside_museum. The woven artwork 'Malarial Therapy' by @Jackietapestry represents the use of malaria-infected mosquitos in the treatment of patients with General Paralysis of the Insane (tertiary syphilis) in the early twentieth century.

Outside Buckingham Palace with ⁦@coatofhopes⁩ making invitation to put on the coat on last day of UK COP presidency. Still so far to go but the work of grief, hope and prayer continues. #climatejustice

Hello @mariacaulfield Please can you attend @lloyd_rm debate on the private rented sector on Thursday 3 November. As my MP it’s important you tell the new minister how badly we need rental reform. @genrentuk

I just took part in the #BigPlasticCount, UK’s biggest investigation into household plastic waste. Here’s what I found really happens to my plastic waste:

♻️8% recycled
🌍12% sent abroad
🔥52% burnt
⛰️28% sent to landfill

This is shocking, right?! @Jochurchill_MP @pow_rebecca

New Scots Pine weaving. I love the contrast with the autumn colour. My next piece will be based on a different pine tree model (3rd photo). Anyone got any idea what type it is?

@KatyBruce108 @keithgeraghty Thanks I'll check it out. I think I'm being treated with CBT as a supportive therapy. It's not been suggested as a cure. I try to have an open mind but so far it's very rigid and content-heavy which doesn't help with my fatigue and concentration problems!

[Jackie Bennett @Jackietapestry]

@KatyBruce108 Really good to connect with you. I hope you are ok x

[Jackie Bennett @Jackietapestry]

@KatyBruce108 Funny how I found you after following an RT. I've been thinking about you recently now I've been diagnosed with chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia. Been prescribed CBT😬

It's #WoolWeek and the perfect opportunity to share exactly why we use wool for our blankets and scarves.
