You have reminded us of one of our favourite library/garden quotes! 😀
ALT Images of the Newcomb Library study area and our green houseplants: along with this quote: “A well-stocked, well-staffed library is like a gardener who plants books, knowledge, and dreams and grows readers, learners, and do-ers.” ― Laura Purdie Salas
On my way to @UoBGradSchool for the Research Festival - hoping to spot my entry in the PGT Gallery. It’s a homage to the brilliant @NewcombLibrary, with thanks to @ApprenticeHUHFT for encouraging me in my research journey @NHSHomerton (Online Showcase- tr.ee/7ScPnspCZY)

One of my favourite weekends of the year in Hackney. Streets full of runners (not cars!), neighbours cheering them on. The marshes full of people in the sunshine. The @HackneyPlaybus doing it’s thing. A celebration of staying healthy & community @HackneyMoves @hackneycouncil
