At the wonderful Everyman Theatre tonight to see Rebus: A Game Called Malice. One of my favourite crime characters, can’t wait to see how he translates to the stage.

Loved talking w/ Dr Anita Sethi 🍃 last night in Stroud about THE LIE OF THE LAND & community ownership of land to restore nature Earlier on we’d visited a great example of this - the beautiful Heavens Valley, in process of being bought by the people of Stroud! heavensvalley.org.uk

One of the ways we're working to improve accessibility is through this library of objects that can be borrowed during a visit to Dyrham Park to make your visit easier. It's in the locker room near the house entrance. 💜 #PurpleTuesday #Accessibility #Inclusion #EveryoneWelcome
