#Herefordshire I'm doing a talk in Kings Caple next Thurs 16th Jan about community resilience for health. I'll be covering climate change and health, and how community development can lead to more sustainable, demedicalised care.

Line of sight transmission is dependent on the landscape, so nodes with good views offer the best chance of widening networks. This is where friends in high places come in; transmitters on hills, steeples & tower blocks are powerful connectors, like the beacons that crossed the country once were.

Meshtastic offers a resilient, democratic infrastructure for local communication. A node connects to any others it can see, forming a mesh that links every node that can see at least one member of the group. The network of LoRa transmitter nodes needed isn't complete yet, though.

LoRa (pronounced 'Laura') transmitters are small, a few cm across, can run on batteries, and are low enough in power to avoid the need for a ham radio licence. They mainly connect by line-of-sight, low data rates allowing only text messages.

First gig for a long time coming up - playing the organ for the village carol concert. I love the 'last verse' versions with their gorgeous, chunky chords - the sound of Christmas.

Last sail of the year. Something special about being on the water.

Just like normal New Year, the start of the gardening new year involves getting it ready for bed. Spending the day happily mulching the veg beds with our compost. Good, crumbly stuff. The secret is getting an even mix of green (eg grass cuttings) & brown (cardboard etc).
