The usual chaos in my garden - foxgloves have self seeded and are running amok in my raspberries.
However, Gertrude has joined the party- she is my favourite and smells divine.

I’ve been talking about this idea for a while. A take a break badge that indicates when we need to HALT.
It would clearly need to be tested as part of a wider project looking at barriers and enablers to taking breaks…

Mahatma Gandhi.
As a cisgender female who looks female / like a woman. I won’t be affected by the change in law. Solidarity to many of my patients / colleagues / friends who will be.
