There's been lots of talk recently about getting disabled/long-term sick people back into the workforce, but very little about the 60,000 disabled people waiting for support to do just that Here's what's going on with the Access to Work scheme đ§”đ https://t.co/IVz9nBPh21

2/Nicola was also a remarkable historian whose work on the British countryside was both groundbreaking and humane. Her work on country women, in particular, has transformed the field.

Nicola was brilliant in every way. She was intellectually bold, unfailingly kind, and so, so funny. Spending time with her was always a joy and we loved her unconditionally.
