@malizia_nick00 Too kind Nick.

A great lesson today in just knocking on a door if you’re curious when out gathering stories in a community.

Met the most fascinating woman who left South Africa after their home was targeted in an armed robbery.

She quit her job in marketing and now creates antique furniture.

[Jacob Farr @Jacobfarr31]

They came to the UK on holiday and fell in love with Edinburgh. Within two years they’d bought an old council house in Winchburgh.

Her little remakery stood out like a sore thumb. Completely remade their life after a chance visit.

Going to make such a great feature.

Yet another family let down by NHS Lothian.

They are demanding answers to ensure no other family has to experience seeing their loved one waste away due to inadequate care at Edinburgh’s Royal Infirmary.

Charity bosses told me they're encountering the rise of the strongest opioid they've ever seen in Edinburgh. Read the third part of our exclusive investigation on nitazenes 👇
