On Friday Nov 5 I’ll join the climate strike in Glasgow, during #COP26 Climate justice also means social justice and that we leave no one behind. So we invite everyone, especially the workers striking in Glasgow, to join us. See you there! #UprootTheSystem @fff_glasgow

Time is running out. Change won’t come from these conferences like #COP26 unless there is big public pressure from the outside. Join the climate strike this Friday (Kelvingrove Park 11am), and the climate march Saturday (11.30am) to make your voice heard. Together we are strong.

We need help to decide how to spend £1.26m in Edinburgh to support community mental health and wellbeing. Read my blog - can we do collaboration rather than competition? Local decisions rather than central? Tackle inequality in a meaningful way? I hope so! evoc.org.uk/blog/putting-t…

Updated blog with draft Partnership Plan setting out ideas about getting the most from the £1.255m allocated to Edinburgh - looking forward to lively and (hopefully) creative conversations at the 5 events over the next 2 weeks... evoc.org.uk/blog/putting-t…

We've started so we'll finish. There are no excuses for not, at the very least, monitoring the water quality at key swimming sites. @TerryAHearn , Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) is the key to transforming our sewage system.

Front page of the Times - 'Stop dishing out antidepressants, doctors told.' "..Doctors should prescribe fewer antidepressants and for a shorter time, experts said, after a review found no strong evidence that the drugs were effective."
