Today is #WorldHearingDay. A huge number of us have poor hearing but don’t want it confirmed due to #HearingAid stigma. Let’s move beyond that. You don’t know what you’re missing. ReSound have a free quick test you can do at home with headphones: resound.com/en/online-hear…

My situation is a bit different as I’m profoundly #deaf #HoH so totally dependent on my ReSound #HearingAids but, please. If you have a #HearingLoss, try some. The hidden things you can suddenly hear, and easy joy you gain from them will blow away any fears over stigma.

Here. Have a field in May, full of flowers, has been grazed twice this season. Growing beef and biodiversity! Amazing!!! Who knew it was possible… And all we had to do to get this from a fairly dull pasture was change the grazing schedule and manage the thistle and bracken.

Today is my #DeathDay. 18 years ago today I went through a car windscreen while out cycling. Major trauma. Airlifted by Devon Air Ambulance to Royal Devon NHS, heart stopped twice in the air. They say that only the good die young. I've done it twice 😋 daat.org/Blog/an-accden…

Fleeces selling at £0.20p each. Contract shearing £1.40. Millions of buildings need insulating. People need green jobs. What is going wrong in this chain?

Funding for farmland wildlife a thread🧵 On Monday Lizzie Hulton-Harrop went to Downing Street to speak at the Mobilising Nature Finance event and raised concerns about how this funding model is developing and the potential negative impacts for wildlife and family farms ⬇️

Last night we employed our humane mousetrap for the first time. At last, caught the audacious miscreant who has been nibbling my stretching mat and press-up handles in the garage. Released safely in a neighbouring field.
