This morning @wesstreeting confirmed that financial support for the hospice sector would be announced before Christmas. We're still waiting for the detail of what this means, but it's positive to hear that the Government seems to be listening to our concerns around funding.

@HistoricEngland @BlackSabbath Wonderful news! Now on to the Electric Cinema...

The Crown Inn, Birmingham, is now Grade II Listed! 🎉 Regarded as the birthplace of heavy metal music, it's been recognised for the role it played in the development of the genre and for launching the career of famous Birmingham based band @BlackSabbath. 🤘 © Elliott Brown

Sitcoms that have fallen off the edge of television history. Wilderness Road, Comrade Dad, A Prince Among Men, Fiddlers Three, An Actor's Life For Me, Oh Happy Band!, Rep... let's hear all about all of them. Especially if they never made you laugh once timworthington.org/2021/06/16/loo…

@Owen_de_Visser Well said Owen.

I'll be honest, I didn't like this building at all. But I came to appreciate that whether I liked it or not was quite irrelevant. Architecture like this is part of the cultural story of Birmingham. And once it is gone, a tangible part of our city's history goes with it

Today is a big - and slightly terrifying - day for @brumdispatch. It's the day we turn on paid subscriptions and discover if people are prepared to pay for local journalism. 🤞

@Owen_de_Visser The word ‘helps’ doing some heavy lifting there.

These are basically medicine

**PLEASE HELP** The Edgbaston Village Artisan Market, which was due to be held on my gallery's street tomorrow, has just been cancelled due to weather conditions. These markets are essential for businesses down our street, and they are the only really busy day of the month. 🧵
