A year ago I read @MichaelRosenYes’s poem about the NHS on @BBCr4today. He had Covid and was fighting for his life in ICU. So 12 months later, it is wonderful to have him here on @BBCNews reading it himself. Thanks @charliemackesy for illustrating so beautifully #bbcnews10

Actual shape of our actual tree 🎄 Makes me smile because it’s the only tree we could afford when we left.... lopsided, wonky, utterly adored because I can choose when to put it up, what to put on it. I’m allowed to play music round it, sing to it if I like #DomesticAbuse

Home is not always a safe place. At home shouldn’t mean at risk. If you’re in danger call 999 and when prompted dial 55. For more information gov.uk/domestic-abuse #YouAreNotAlone
