Reading Careless People. Sarah left the UN to be Facebook’s first Global Public Policy Director (they didn’t have one, didn’t particularly want one, but she thought they needed one). It’s a really good read, but I can see Mark Zuckerberg might not like it - he doesn’t come over well…🙂

So it begins… Rise tonight (I’m going tomorrow), then events across the region, across the year. Bradford looks great (then there’s free coffee outside the Interchange, free Seabrooks crisps at Forster Square - both as part of the #Bradford2025 package.

Hi all. These are being made by a local FB group (www.facebook.com/profile.php?...) to raise funds for a brilliant little girl called Ellerie who has been diagnosed with a very rare form of cancer. They’re brilliant quality, and if you’re interested, I’m sure they’ll give you ordering info. 🙂

Great few days with National Literacy Trust Bradford going around parks, sharing stories and gifting books. The combination of a US school bus and free books is very tempting!
