This article provides a compelling look at Ashley Smith & Peter Hammond, the individuals who inspired the series.

Four years have passed, yet we still find ourselves no closer to resolving this ongoing crisis.

This is the story of Veronika, a 13-year-old Braunvieh cow living in a rural area of Austria.

Veronika is not a production animal. She lives as a companion animal and spends much of her time interacting with humans.

When I was a kid, I dreamed of being like Jane Goodall. I feel really lucky to have had such amazing role models growing up. Nowadays, if you ask kids what they want to be, they'll probably say influencers or reality TV stars...

Met someone at a party the other evening who told me what her favourite Shirley Temple film was within the first 15 minutes of conversation, unprompted. Managed not to grab her by the lapels and scream BE MY FRIEND, which I find tends to put people off.

If anyone has people in their network who work in charities which deal specifically with issues of rural poverty I’d be grateful for any connections. Not rural homelessness, although I appreciate there’s a crossover. Scoping out a possible follow on to Outsiders focused on this subject.
