Yesterday; observing melting tarmac emerge to the surface on an Islington back-street. Reminiscent of Man's first step on the Moon. Maybe Earth is becoming a Moon?

Building community normally begins with a set of empty chairs and a set of empty tables. Question is; how do we organise them? And who is invited?

We have our first bearded chancellor in 120 years. It's a good time to be alive 😊

Schools “in” a geographical community are just the beginning. Then the hard work begins. How can schools be “of” the community? Too many are fortresses that keep neighbourhoods at arm's length and, in doing so, miss the most important educational asset of all; the village. #ABCD

[Cormac Russell @CormacRussell]

Being “in” the community is just the start; then, the hard work of being “of” the community begins. Our new book is a searchers’ compass towards being “of” the connected community. Here’s our new website with everything u need to know about the book: https://t.co/nmcHyOO6dX #ABCD

Really looking forward to this coming out. One Good Reason.

Today is World Bee Day and at Hackney Libraries we're celebrating with some of our favourite bee-related reads! The History of Bees by Maya Lunde is a haunting book about the disappearance of bees and the threat of ecological disaster 🐝
