Today's #FestivePhotoADay is a photo of our beautiful #Advent wreath, just before more colour is added to it. Look out for some new photos of the updated greenery tomorrow! #FollowTheStar

I'm delighted to have reached 25,000 followers 🥳💃 This time last year, I was between 6,000-7,000 followers. It's great to be able to spread awareness of domestic abuse, bust myths around it, & make points that survivors find helpful to a wider audience.

By far the best highlight for me this year👇 Thank you to everyone who was involved in pushing this forward especially Dr Baroness Newlove LLD (hc) DCL Centre for Women's Justice Julia Drown This will save lives! (June 7th - 29th October 2022, CPS Direct charged 174 perpetrators with this new offence)

Finally after having to be tight lipped for over 12 months I can now say that my documentary ‘a murder in the family’ will be out on ITVX next Thursday (Jan 5th) I am so proud to be a part of this series and to be sharing who my mum was as a person and not just her death.
