Community-led development gets the green light
The homes will be allocated to those registered in need of housing
Great to see this on new @wecanmake.bsky.social development: community-led, community-built, community lived-in affordable homes. Starting to unlock the thousands of micro-sites around our cities for much needed housing. Proper job @melissamean.bsky.social & co!

Really enjoyed watching Power Station last night @wshed.bsky.social Inspiring stories about how a neighbourhood can come together & - despite all the obstacles - achieve something amazing while having fun along the way. Just the dose of positivity I needed!

Why I love Bristol. Seeing the fabulous Joy Crookes, one of my favourite singers, with 200 people, in a club 200 yards from home.
She is amazing! ❤️❤️❤️

We were out there for the quarters, the semis and then this. Was immense. We were directly behind the goal for the penalties

Incredible match. Extra time for the third match in a row. We were right behind the goal for the penalties. Champions of Europe again!

Sam. I agree. I’ve long been of the school that ‘people become their behaviours’ and we need to make the right choices easier. (Viz kerbside recycling in UK)

On VE Day, I remember my Dad (centre) who, aged 18, was on the D-Day landing & fought his way across Europe. And I worry that, with the passing of this generation, we're losing our collective memory of what happened in Europe, how lucky we've been these past decades, & how precious peace is.
