Blackpool Pride Festival will be celebrating its 20th anniversary this weekend! 🏳️🌈
This weekend’s events mark two decades of bringing local people and visitors together to celebrate under this year’s powerful, community-chosen theme, ‘One Love, One Pride’.
I’ll be proud to march in the @BlackpoolPride Parade today, shoulder to shoulder with the LGBTQ+ community and allies.
Happy Pride Blackpool!

Deepest condolences to Henry Nowak's family - what happened to Henry mustn’t happen again.
Indebted to Mr Nowak for his dignity, grace and poise, even in such grief.
Hope all can rally behind his call for unity, as it’s not about religion or racism, but actions of one murderer.
Africa Day is a celebration of our continent, its people, its cultures and its future.
That future begins with learning.
When a young person steps into a classroom, joins a conservation club, learns practical skills, or spends time in nature with those who know it deeply, something powerful happens. Knowledge is passed on, confidence grows, opportunities emerge, and a deeper connection to people and place begins to take root.
Across the landscapes managed by African Parks in partnership with governments, education is helping foster pride in their natural heritage in ways that reach far beyond the classroom.
This Africa Day, explore stories of learning, shared knowledge and opportunity from across the continent. https://t.co/4AcVMPo0pb

The theme of today’s International Day for Biological Diversity, “Acting locally for global impact,” reflects our approach to conservation.
From habitat restoration and species conservation to community engagement, education and livelihood development,local action across the protected landscapes we manage is helping to create lasting positive impacts for people, wildlife, and the planet.

A tourism tax could raise serious money for the government.
But for short-term rental hosts? It’s another layer of pressure.
Andy Fenner from the Short Term Accommodation Association shares what this could mean for the industry.

Today is #InternationalNursesDay,
Nurses are incredible people. People like Carol, my mother in law. She worked for the #NHS for nearly 50 years then went to Zambia & trained local nurses, passing on a lifetime of skills to the next generation.
Thank you Carol & all nurses.
Back in the UK for a day so went with Andy & my in-laws Carol & Mike to see Andy’s brother Chris’s memorial tree. Chris was a wildlife police officer in Zambia, he died in 2014 in the Lower Zambezi valley, a place & community he loved dearly.
His memory is a blessing.
Last week I had the pleasure of attending the inaugural European Network for Public Administration conference in #Bucharest hosted by The Bucharest University of Economic Studies
Fantastic weekend in beautiful #Bucharest with Andy after my conference. Great food, friendly people, warm weather, thanks @visit_romania_ we will be back!
Today on Yom HaShoah, we remember the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust.
Andy & me were in the synagogue in Sofia thinking of the friends we would have had, Shabbat meals we would have shared. Lives that will never happen due to ignorance & racism.
