What a busy few days I’ve had. I’ve been on lots of walks and had lots of nice naps on the sofa! I’m enjoying have a little doggo to play with too. Although I am missing my cafe and work trips!

We win together and we lose together. So proud to have teammates with such top character. Takes huge bollocks just to volunteer. As for the racism, hurtful but not surprising. Will never get bored of saying that more needs to be done. Educate and control the platforms!✊🏽

It makes me smile when I hear people saying ‘these face masks are such a pain, I just can’t read anyone’s facial expressions’ - this is just a small insight into what it’s like being blind. We can ‘never’ see people’s faces, but you can pick up so much in a voice! Learn to listen
