This is Nell, and today is her sixth birthday. She's extremely loved and being her dad has pulled me through countless tough days.
I'd like to share her with you in hope she can make your burdens feel a little lighter.
You got this.
But most importantly, Happy Birthday Nell 🧡

All 2.4m of Britain’s creative workers are at risk — and we know why
A new report into the impact of AI on the creative sector makes for apocalyptic reading. The government must act now
