Managed to sneak in a morning session at Hanretty SkateCamps B4 going into London for tonight's A Wild Evening theatre show. This time last year @Mark_Hanretty & I were working hard, training for Dancing On Ice at the very same rink, so brought a lot of memories flooding back💛⛸️

Worked with @bamukandireland construction company this week on their collaboration with @edenprojectcornwall . Construction isn't known for being sustainable but we have to try and find ways to make it better & the expertise of the Eden Project is surely a positive way forward.

Some cruel practices are surely easy to change?
TV presenter and wildlife champion Michaela Strachan is standing with us to call for an end to the cruel practice of boiling crabs and lobsters alive. With her compassion and passion for animals, Michaela is helping raise her voice for those who cannot speak for themselves.
