Was great to join Claire Riley on her latest podcast to chat about Number Stacks. In a busy world, you don’t always get the chance to reflect on what you’ve achieved but I fully recommend doing so as it’s surprising how much you forget!!
Thanks Claire 😊

Bit of a random one (and non-maths related!) but does anyone have any Liverpool FC contacts? Have a mate who’s undergoing intense chemo in hospital atm and looking for something like a video message or similar to lift his spirits on his birthday.
Thanks in advance for any help 🙏🏻
