Vision from my point of view
In October 2021, out of the blue I became seriously ill with Infective endocarditis this led to multiple strokes, a bout of sepsis and a long hospital stay. I don’t recall waking up blind; instead, I have memories of being told about surgeries and gradually adjusting to a new reality.
From Labour to Green - my explanation
On Friday afternoon, a dramatic flood occurred at Tube Court, a seven-story (four with flats) residential building managed by Home Group in Ouseburn Ward. This building, home to around 50 residents and about a decade old, it has a mixing of housing association tenants and some residents with shared and private ownership. In the past Home Group have been thought of as a responsive landlord although in my view this reputation has been eroded over the last couple of years in their Newcastle sites and this time, the failures have been profound.
