…They'll ensure the tourniquets reach the brave first responders and defenders on the front lines.
This direct approach not only supports a Ukrainian business but also dramatically speeds up delivery—estimated at just 3 to 7 days.
Whether it’s through volunteering, donating, or simply raising awareness regarding the need to support Ukraine—every effort makes a difference.
Yesterday on the Pennine Way, myself, another volunteer and Adam from North Pennines National Landscape repaired a stile, cleared a blocked culvert, rearranged a stone drain across the path and cut out some fabric from the path that was a trip hazard.
This is opposite the quarry above High Force. Didn't need 3 people but we were all needed to carry tools and materials as only way to this point is on foot from High Force Hotel. Hot and tiring.

Yesterday at Shildon Engine House, a drone was used to capture dozens of images to be used to make a photogrammetry image of the site.
I also took some photos of damage and assessed the condition of the site. Worst thing for me was previous infill 'repair' using brick. Why? It's not like there isn't any stone lying about.
Built by Cornish miners and housed a Cornish beam engine that moved up and down in the tall opening to drain a lead mine.

It's a busy week this week. Yesterday was a blood test for cholesterol level.
Today it's Land of Lead and Silver visit to Shildon Engine House to assess it's condition. So that will be looking at an old wreck by.... you get the picture.
Tomorrow it's footpath maintenance for N Pennines National Landscape on the Pennine Way and I could maybe walk there as its close but probably won't.
Thursday Shopping.

Blowing my own trumpet time. I feature in Nenthead Mines Conservation Society newsletter in a couple of articles. This one about one of the repairs to a dry stone wall in the river Nent.
There's another one with me underground doing basic labouring after the skilled engineering volunteers had carried out work to shore up a section of roof. I might post it later but I'm short of time as I'm off there again soon today.

Did you know April is National #Volunteer Month? It's the perfect time to reflect on the incredible power of giving back.
First, a heartfelt thank you to all the volunteers who dedicate their time and energy to making our world a better place. Your service is truly inspiring.
No matter the scale, getting involved with an organization fosters incredible growth and creates tangible change. From addressing critical issues like food…

Yet another example of people doing a lot of hard work, for free, and for a good cause. Imagine if more could be involved to do such acts. We need to take care of people, in order for people to not destroy the environment, each other, and to have time to restore what was destroyed.
Help people, to help the world.
