Organised chaos today as these amazing volunteers got out over 55 hampers to families in need.

Now to put my feet up!

It feels like you don't hear a lot of good things, so I'm honestly in tears over the generosity of local businesses and people to our local foodbank this Christmas as I take delivery of another donation.

What a day! Some Tuesdays I help out at Sunnyside Supplies- an amazing community venture. It was hectic but much excitement about our new storage container! Thank you to the Arnold Clark Community Fund.

I popped into the White Ribbon event in Wickersley this afternoon. A brave event organised by great female Labour Councillors - it's important to have a space to talk about domestic abuse.

Tonight was the 10th anniversary of Reclaim the Night in Rotherham.

It started to make sure women's voices were heard and I would never have guessed back then the impact it would have.

Tonight was produced by Flux who did an amazing job carrying on the spirit of the night.

So sad to hear about John Prescott. My thoughts are with David and the family.

A complete legend who I will be eternally grateful to. My favourite photo sits on my desk and makes me smile every day!
