Such lovely and surprising news from across the Atlantic!

Wednesday

So completely & utterly devastated that our beloved Rosie passed away. Peacefully in her sleep.

My heart is broken and being apart from my family is so hard at this time. Rosie was our autism therapy dog, gentle, sensitive and a loving companion. We will miss her so so much 😔

Sincere gratitude for all your comforting words on the loss of Rosie.

Mum brought Greyhounds into our lives, she said they had a special & soulful presence. We named mum ‘She Wolf’ as the hounds followed her around…would only move to her voice. We’re all so desperately sad 💔

Nature - our life support system - is in trouble. But it’s not too late to act. Please sign the #RewildingNation Charter, calling for Scotland to become the world’s first Rewilding Nation - offering hope for nature, climate and people.

It's a great honour to be asked to give this year's Seamus Heaney Memorial Lecture, in partnership with Seamus Heaney Centre and @NDIrishStudies.

I'll be speaking about Heaney's sense of touch, about how poems touch us, and how we touch the world through poems.

“food convoys, that should be going particularly to the north, where 70% of the population face famine conditions, are THREE TIMES more likely to be denied than any other humanitarian convoy with other kinds of material.”
