📖 ♀️ Our team were delighted to visit the 'Medieval Women' exhibition at The British Library! An incredibly curated exhibition, our team thoroughly enjoyed the section dedicated to Health and the body. From sexual and reproductive health, to women's roles as medical practitioners.

What is happening in LA is devastating and seeing the images of wildlife desperately searching for safety is beyond heartbreaking. A baby deer stumbling through the smoke alone has broken me. She has nowhere to evacuate to. Climate change is real and here. Stop over consuming. Write to MPs. Act NOW.

Creatures, places and words disappear, day after day, year on year. So, let these spells ring far and wide; speak their words and seek their art, let the wild world into your eyes, your voice, your heart.

When you live in a wee flat, get a wee Christmas tree made of sculpted paper! Clever stuff by my talented friend, Peter Ayers. Then last night I was given a tiny handmade felt book (will add soon). The card in the pic is also handmade. Think my calls for a #sustainablechristmas are getting through 😉
