A brilliant day at the @SATHinfo 2023 conference, hosted by @poppyscotland. A personal highlight was seeing this vial of sand from the Somme, on the anniversary of the end of the battle. Thanks to all who made it happen!

[Joanne Harris @Joannechocolat]

Reading widely builds resilience and critical thinking. The more widely we read, the less likely we are to be influenced by any one opinion. Occasionally reading books that express problematic ideas gives us the vocabulary to understand those ideas, and to combat them.

[Holocaust Memorial Day Trust @HMD_UK]
