It is the season to be jolly but if you are not feeling that it’s ok. Reach out to a friend if you can or a service who will listen. There are no set things to feel or do at this time of year. Be kind to yourself and others. Sending a virtual hug to anyone who may need it.

@coe.int 2030 midterm term climate change targets have been removed in Scotland. A just transition to a net zero economy by 2045 is the aim. Local government is ready to demonstrate leadership to step up the pace of change but we need more skills, capacity, data & of course investment. @cosla.gov.uk
