This is such a good idea. I hope it happens, esp given next year is the National Year of Reading. But also, there need to be libraries for those babies to go to. Increased library funding now! observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

This is devastating but hard to think of more important journalism. 18,457 children have been killed in Gaza (many more not accounted for). Here, The Guardian prints their names and beautiful faces and tells us what they were like before Israel stole their lives. www.theguardian.com/world/ng-int...

An actual quote from the Secretary of State for Business and Trade
Too often people go to university to ‘explore research and knowledge’
Look forward to Wes S saying 'too often people go to hospital to have operations' or Heidi Alexander saying 'too often people go to the station to catch a train'

Its barely two weeks away 🫣 but yes, I am running the Great North Run this year for the third time. And again I'm running for this amazing charity, providing financial and emotional support to families of babies born poorly or prematurely, like my own little hero born at 26 weeks in 2017.
