On this #ThankYouDay we want to celebrate every volunteer, charity staff member and colleague that contributes to supporting local communities.
We wouldn’t be able to do what we do without you, so thank you 💙

Over the past five years, the number of people experiencing destitution more than doubled.
We have joined over 200 other organisations by signing a letter by @jrf_uk urging the next Prime Minster to put tackling hardship at the top of their agenda from day one #OurEssentials
🗳️ With the election just a week away, over 200 organisations are asking the same question of all political leaders.
What urgent action will you take to tackle hardship?
Read the full letter here: jrf.org.uk/news/hundreds-of-… #OurEssentials

Austerity’s children – those born after 2010 – now account for 3.4m of Britain’s 4.3m children in poverty, with an extra 100k children pushed into poverty every year.
The damage to them runs deep and will have devastating consequences.

Forecasters at NOAA have issued a rare Severe Geomagnetic Storm Watch for the first time since 2005.
A spectacular aurora is likely Friday night and into the weekend.
It's possible that satellite communications and power systems could be affected.

England should get a view of the northern lights tonight!
As Matt says, Once dark, go outside and look north...
Mother forking shirtballs, it's really kicking off at STEREO-A (which is a few hours ahead of Earth, in solar wind terms.)
Total field ~80nT, with a lot of that southward, maybe -75 nT?!. This is going to be big when it reaches Earth.

Calling social scientists and health economists:
I’m trying to pull together as many official surveys as possible from as many countries as possible that track mental health (ideally including children, but adults-only will do).
I’m good for UK and US, anyone got any others? 🙏

"It just points to the need for NHS dentistry."
Around 800 people queued outside this new dental practice in #Bristol today - hoping to register as an NHS patient.

🚨 1.5 MILLION emergency food parcels were provided by food banks in our network between April and September.
This is the highest number of parcels our network has ever distributed in 6 months.
And this is likely to get worse – unless the government steps up to make change. ⤵️

It's that magical time of the year, a new Christmas ad from @AldiUK!
This year it focuses on the positives of sharing, with reference to their brilliant work supporting communities across the UK via Neighbourly.

Businesses in Bristol can now trial an e-cargo bike for free.
The bikes are equipped with a large storage space for goods and an electric motor to support the cyclist, offering a sustainable alternative to petrol and diesel vehicles.

NEW: we need to talk about the dire state of British transport infrastructure.
Of the 52 UK cities with 250k+ people, only 8 (15%) have a tram or metro.
In France & Germany it’s 80%, Poland is on 60%.
Even *American* cities are better served, and the US hates public transit!
Well this is exciting! Being an awesome human is only possible when you’re surrounded by other ‘awesome humans’ . So @nbrly 🎉👏😍 - for you.

This summer we’re excited to be working with Hays, getting their teams into communities to volunteer in response to increasing need.
