Great to speak to BBC York Joanita Musisi this morning about St Leonards Hospice, its work and 40th anniversary. Tonights event at York Minster is a chance to say thank you to our incredible community for their steadfast support over the years.

A bit of time between St Leonards Hospice events today. A wander around my favourite York Museums Trust museum, caught the sun in York, popped into the St Leonards Hospice Colliergate shop that’s about to be refit and chilled with coffee at Pret. Not a bad way to spend a couple of hours!

Massive increase in bills. Numerous leaks across the city. Lengthy delays in getting repairs done. And of course…a hosepipe ban is the answer to their problems. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Always a pleasure to spend time with this man. Huge thank you for coming all the way to York to help us celebrate St Leonards Hospice 40th.

Credit to Teesside International Airport. I usually dread airport pickups but this is amazing! Easy parking, cheap making almost free coffee! Nice to say hello to the Mayor Ben Houchen who was working at the airport at this time on a Saturday morning too!

Hi Yorkshire Water 💧. Before you put the hosepipe ban in, there’s yet another water leak in Strensall. Seems like you’re having lots of problems in York this year. ///suspends.changes.burst

On Tuesday I talked so much Joanita Musisi didn’t have a chance to ask me the question about our garden. This is what I’m most proud of. I can’t take any credit for them but the alliums are beautiful this year 😊

It’s been a while. Here’s a Saturday treat for you. How cute are these beauties ❤️

Incredible to see Hospice UK Garden of Compassion at The RHS #Chelsea on prime time BBC Two. Such a thoughtful design from Tom raising money for such an important cause.

It’s a lively week for us with full days. For the first time in a year I’ve not had the time to get the steps in. Great to get out in the early summer sunshine tonight. 25k steps day 😊

The new Lord Mayor of York is Martin Rowley and the Sheriff City of York Council is Paul Doughty #Oyez 🔔 Amazing day welcoming the new civic party, and an exciting year ahead!

Still do!

And we’re off to a fabulous start! Great to meet the YMTC at JoRo Theatre. Learned lots about the charity, how productions are made and the incredible amount of volunteering that goes into to the shows. A phenomenal show with so much home grown York talent! #SisterAct

France took a major step toward legalizing assisted dying today as a majority of members of parliament voted in favor of landmark legislation. politico.eu/article/france…

Hi⁦RSPCA (England & Wales). As a trusted source on information on animal welfare you have any advice for the public and MP’s on how this vote should go?⁩ petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7005…

Big thank you to Trinity Hospice shop in Bispham today. A badly planned trip to the seaside saved by a nice warm jumper and a smiling shop volunteer 😊

First in-person meeting for 6yrs of revamped Govt advisory group on #SuicidePrevention. Made a difference to be in same room. Rich discussion of new data & priorities & sensitive issue of new suicide methods. Our task to bring down 5690 suicides registered in England in 2024.

54 years old and the urge to resist remains just as strong. Candyking

Fab time with the civic party today and SNAPPY celebrating their 40th birthday. Supporting disabled children and young people. What an incredible charity, volunteers, team and young people! Thank you for inviting us Karen!
