I often think about the impact that Octavia Hill had on the young Elizabeth Casson when she worked as a housing manager for Octavia on one of her London Housing projects. It truly was formative!

Why singing is surprisingly good for your health
From boosting the brain to reducing pain, joining others in song can bring some wide-ranging benefits.
Just another reason to make 2026 the year you join a choir!πΆ And for those of us who are "too online", @choiroftheearth.com is fantastic - all the same benefits but no going out in the cold, no social anxiety, and you can sing your heart out in your PJs! #choralsky

Okay, here we go.
Health & care staff are no longer allowed a Covid booster, but they're still expected to look after COVID+ patients.
NHS/govt is reneging on its duty of care. Staff will become unwell, and patients too will suffer.
You know what to do
