Hi @BrightonHoveCC, I've just seen that at least two trees are being felled on Ventnor Villas. Could you tell me why this was done? Really upset to see them go.

@Hermesparcels Your courier delivered my parcel while I was out and left it in 'a safe place' - unsecured on a London street - and it has, unsurprisingly, been stolen. How can I complain?

[Julia Lewis @JuliaMLewis]

@arbiebaguios @JFCrisp Fully agree - as the gap between fundraising and the reality on the ground increases so too will public scepticism and reluctance to support aid, esp. in current climate. Public education and full transparency needed from the sector to change this long-term.

@JFCrisp @arbiebaguios wrote a blog about it a couple of months ago too: https://t.co/rMepTbnJTL

@PabloYanguas @JFCrisp I've been talking, informally, about the need to do just this for a while. Crucial part of wider discussion with the public about aid and the industry.

Great to partner with @Concern on this project connecting & empowering women in #DirectProvision & young Syrian refugees in the Middle East through technology. Huge thanks to @nethope_org for making this possibleto our hosts @accenture for intro to their Digital Skills programme.

After @soniarolley and @aaronross6's recent revelations, it's useful to summarize what we know about the killing of M Sharp and Z Catalan. https://t.co/JVJj0XIEa7

@Feargalll @NellieKingston Wait, what?!

[Julia Lewis @JuliaMLewis]

@Feargalll Ages - you don't need much. Lasts me a good 3 months + if I'm careful (and half my face isn't covered in hair).

[Julia Lewis @JuliaMLewis]

@Feargalll I think, that it's very light (which it is)

May was the first month in 2017 that the United Nations did not report the death of a relief worker in South Sudan.
