I’ve been staying 10 mins from Windsor Castle since Weds, I went down on Fri to take in this historical moment with the Queen’s passing! It was quite surreal to be there so soon after her passing. Newscrews, souvenirs, overflowing of flowers, crowds building - all under 24 hours.

This time last week, we were just leaving the @southbankcentre having gone to see @MichaelaCoel in conversation with @Edward_Enninful about his new book ‘A Visible Man’. Finally settling down to read it & such a great insight for my daughter as she starts her journey in fashion.

It’s been a busy week at the lab, from meetings, focus groups, conversations with investors to welcoming everyone through the doors to give their views on the city centre vision! @DerbyCC are at the lab until 2pm today. For more info: letstalk.derby.gov.uk #Derby #City
