We’re updating our river level station pages to show a more accurate trend of the river. Based on feedback, we’ll now use an average of the last 5 readings instead of just 2. Stay tuned for more accurate river trends! https://t.co/S2rJmVcs0Z

Another day, another badly overcrowded and thus potentially unsafe @CrossCountryUK train. Train manager has actually just asked us all to complain on social media because ‘maybe they will then listen’, any comments @CrossCountryUK?

I'm honoured and humbled to have been awarded an OBE in the #NewYearsHonours. This is, however, really a recognition of the importance of the work we all collectively do in these fields to make the world a safer, more welcoming and inclusive place. Thank you for all you do too.

Hér má sjá breytingu sem varð á yfirborði við myndun kvikugangsins milli 10. og 11. nóvember. Bláir litir tákna landsig og á myndinni má greinilega sjá legu kvikugangsins og sigdalinn sem myndast hefur. Land í vesturhluta byggðarinnar sigið um allt að 1 m https://t.co/CUtPuZ0XsV

One of the reasons we're worried about #StormCiarán is because of the loss of 'capacity' within the soil as a result of #StormBabet. This animation shows how the soil moisture deficit changed across England and Wales 10 days ago - the dark blues showing 'saturated' catchments

There is something immediately restorative about being in the national HQ of @Scouts, surrounded by history, and with an inspiring vision for the future. I don’t take for granted having the privilege of working from Gilwell Park today. #SkillsForLife #Volunteering

I’m learning something new every day in @Scouts, today it’s pioneering. This bridge was constructed by our 10-14 year olds, and made safe by the leaders! #Volunteering #SkillsForLife #DynamicRiskAssessment

Really good to see my local university taking the lead on this, even better to see on @BBCNews they may take it public. But kudos goes to the students who originally campaigned for this need to be met 👏 #ClimateCrisis #ClimateEmergency
♻️ We are pleased to be the first UK university to launch a free course about the #climate emergency for all students. The comprehensive online course has been developed following a successful campaign students Adam Edwards and Harry O’Higgins. #Sustainability Learn more 👇

Already seeing knitting appeals for Morocco - please please don’t do this. Donated or home made gifts usually become the secondary disaster. Sell your beautiful yarn creations locally and donate the money. #CashNotStuff 🧦

On #WindrushDay2023 a thought provoking read from a wonderful former @EnvAgency colleague of mine, now doing amazing work for both @scouts and @macmillancancer
Today we mark 75 years since the HMT Empire Windrush arrived in Britain. Mike Clarke writes about what Windrush means to him, and how this links to his volunteer role at Scouts reaching more under-represented communities. https://t.co/eZhmA1D4ol
