Great evening at eight-woman, transatlantic MotherDaughter book club discussing anorexia & “Good Girls” by Hadley Freeman with 2 secondary school teachers - 1 GirlsDaySchoolTrust, 1 state, one child psych, one mother of 4 girls/school governor. Quite the gamut of experience. So stimulating.

Preparing for today’s drop-in and feeling thankful to Big Yellow for storage, to GOODS FOR GOOD (GLOBAL) and Bloody Good Period and all donors who give us things our guests need. And Vodafone UK whose SIMs are so popular (and mercifully small!) #RefugeesWelcome
