Mel ♥️
On the u3a natural history walk we came across this rock, which is very artistically painted. It was up near the Drake Stone above Harbottle and we left it for others to see. Whoever Mel is, it brought a smile to our faces!

'Over a year into the new Labour government, health and care services are still under massive strain. Too many people are waiting too long for care or struggling to navigate fragmented services.' Hugh Alderwick, Director of Policy at the Health Foundation
