Awesome and slightly surreal start to the year with everyone's favourite green owl Duo in Westminster! Excited to have more than 100 parliamentarians supporting the @duolingo #WestminsterLanguageChallenge learning 23 languages for a chance to win £20,000 for charity.

Worth reading @thetimes interview of @duolingo founder and CEO @LuisvonAhn if you want to understand what makes Duolingo tick. TLDR - mission driven (open up access to education), combined with using the latest technology and don’t forget to make it fun!.

Bittersweet moment getting together with the @NCSTrust board for a last supper. We shared reflections on the massive impact that NCS has had on 1M+ young people across the UK and many more communities, local and national charities, parents and those who worked on the programme.

Thanks for calling back BA - your social media team obviously had a lot on their plates today but dealt with the situation really well. Much appreciated.

Yeah so annoying! By the way just making everyone aware that the above account “Client Response” actually did get in touch but they’re scammers trying to get credit card details! 🙀🙀🙀.

Hi @British_Airways you’ve been in touch to say that I can rebook or potentially cancel my flight today, but it’s not possible to contact you. The change can’t be made online (why?) & when I call the number it says you’re too busy to take the call. Please advise what I should do.
