I find it illuminating to to look at contemporary responses to the terrible destruction of WW2. Here @river_rowing gives food for thought. Artists including John Piper were closely involved in representing the impact of Blitz. Booklet to left published in 1942.

We welcome this vital funding for arts & culture. We have been campaigning since the crisis began for the investment that we need to support our museums & our communities & this should go a long way to sustaining our museums & galleries through the current crisis.

‘Henley Royal Regatta’, from The Graphic, 18 July 1891
Before WWI, houseboats were one of the greatest attractions of @HenleyRegatta. Stretching from Phyllis Court to Fawley Court Boathouse, they were lavishly decorated.

Kindness is seeing the best in others when they cannot see it in themselves

What’s your #MondayMotivation? Ours is the amazing contribution volunteers make to #foodbanks across our network – their dedication is inspiring!

[Historic Royal Palaces @HRP_palaces]

If 2020 had gone to plan, today we would have been marching alongside thousands of others at #PrideInLondon 🏳️‍🌈 Though we’re sad we can’t be together in person today, our work ‘bringing history out of the closet’ continues online: https://t.co/icoxgR9aoj

#Pride2020 #YouMeUsWe

[Henley Royal Regatta @HenleyRegatta]

Another #HenleyRoyalRegatta tradition we’ll be missing this year…the draw would have been taking place today.

We will miss hosting everyone at this special event.

[foodcycle @foodcycle]

YES WE DO. We are currently delivering 2,500 food parcels which are supporting 6,500 people a week across the country.

[Trussell @TrussellUK]

No charity can replace the dignity of having enough £ for food. But while #foodbanks are needed, having treats like biscuits in addition to standard items like tinned fruit & veg for nutritional balance, can help restore some normality for people during these uncertain times >
