The launch of Bath and NE Somerset Older People’s Voice yesterday with a packed room (we could have filled it twice over) and older people holding officials to account on issues like transport and housing and being clear that older people want to be a part of their local community.

I just want to say that we have been inundated with incredible offers for help and advice. Matthew has met 2 BlueSkyers this evening & came away buzzing with confidence. We now have a former Oxford Law lecturer lined up to do a mock interview with him 🤯🥲 THANK YOU ❤️🤗
The situation: My hardworking stepson has been offered an interview for Law at Oxford. He is the only applicant at his large comprehensive to apply & achieve this. The school cannot help him prepare 😭 Can anyone here offer to help/ chat to him? Msg below & I will follow for DM 🙏🏾🤞🏾

Heartbreaking and angry. We need a rounded approach where communities can support als, but finding they also need support to know how to support others but they are not sure how.
