Nothing says Monday morning like a 10-train service to London now being five. Added extras: 30 year 3 school kids getting on with no reservations as a result of the lack of trains… and lots of very pissed off commuters. Just love UK public transport x


My blood is O neg and neo too. I’m always more than happy to donate but everytime I’ve gone recently my iron is just below the threshold so I haven’t been for months @GiveBloodNHS bbc.co.uk/news/health-68… 😔


I have 2 John Mayer tickets for sale for Paris March 2024. For some reason Ticketmaster France doesn’t let me list them for resale? Happy to sell at FV!


Love this blog from @danslee: danslee.co.uk/2024/01/29/lon…. The fear of walking up those stairs in Queen Street was like no other. But the sale of the building is another huge blow.

📺 Does the new prison TV advert truly reflect the extraordinary job? Three of our frontline staff got a sneak preview to our new recruitment adverts before they went live. We caught their very honest and first reaction. Watch their full reaction ⬇️ youtube.com/watch?v=JXVBsO…


Really pleased to help make this piece happen. Rosie is a superstar, both behind bars and on the pitch! 🤩

💬 “I'm proud of myself for being a footballer and a prison officer", says Rosie Hughes, seen on @DisneyPlus documentary @WrexhamFX Find out more in @BBCSportWales exclusive interview ➡️ bbc.in/3ZCGoFD Apply to be a prison officer today ➡️ bit.ly/3LAzc76



Had such a brilliant day volunteering for St Vincent’s in Sheffield today collecting and delivering furniture to those in need! Thankful for 5 days’ volunteering with @MoJGovUK and I know those I helped today are too! 🚚

So gutted about this. I spent most my Friday nights in here as a kid playing Snake on my dad’s phone whilst my parents and their friends drank 🤣

Absolute disgrace that The Crooked House gets bought last week and closed down. Then strangely enough burns to the ground a few days later! 100’s of years of history gone.

I absolutely loved my visit to this project last month for this video 🫶

“It feels like I’m doing something for the community and that’s what it’s all about” 📹 Take a look at a Community Payback project in @PSYatHHub where offenders prepare, cook and serve a hot meal at a local Lunch Club for the elderly. youtu.be/DGEn5alU-rE



Megan is one of the thousands of prison officers we're currently shining the light on as part of our efforts to drive recruitment at MoJ. Read more about her below ⬇️

"People think it's like the films and TV - locking doors and fights breaking out all the time - but that's not the reality." Megan, 24, recently trained as a prison officer and works at HMP Woodhill, a Category A prison near Milton Keynes. bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-…

How did Paul Cowley go from prison to becoming a celebrated soldier and priest? His story takes us from his troubled upbringing to dedicating his life to helping prison-leavers find jobs at @IcelandFoods Watch the full interview ⬇️

It is right that offenders up and down the country who have damaged their communities are made to pay back through work. If you are a business or charity that could benefit from community payback hours you can nominate a project in your local area here.

"We've employed 9 people so far because we’ve seen skills in them.” Since 2012, @emidexecteam community payback teams have worked at Rhubarb Farm to transform the overgrown site into a place that's open for the local community to visit and enjoy. Take a look 📹



A lovely woman who always lit up the newsroom. Such a pleasure to have worked with her. Sending love to all her family and friends ❤️

Tributes have been paid following the death of Express & Star journalist Marion Brennan at the age of 67. expressandstar.com/news/local-hub…



Do I have anyone on here who lives in Edinburgh? We have a hen do in May and are struggling to think of where is best to go/what to do? Help! #Edinburgh
