In beautiful Dorchester Abbey, @SoundResource gave a Moving Music concert, giving huge pleasure to people living with dementia and their carers. Soprano Hannah Davey with Christopher and Celia Redgate on piano/oboe and violin/flute were an inspiration. Christmas spirit in action!

Dear @TheIFS @PJTheEconomist, I’m so disappointed. You found Sure Start had no impact on offending but you picked 1 positive stat & made it the headline. Sector press is now wrongly reporting that Sure Start cut offending by 20%. Young people deserve much much better than this.

Another wonderful afternoon at The Glamour Club! It was a joyous celebration for the 30th event. To celebrate The Glamour Club’s collaboration with @HelloTogetherCo, I accepted a cake on their behalf, which I shall deliver to their office on Monday! theglamourclub.co.uk
