The tree in question @DrRebeccaGordon
We are very sorry for the disruption on the network this evening. A large tree, which was at risk of falling onto the railway at Walton-on-Thames, has now been removed. All lines in the area have now reopened. Please check before you travel, as services are still subject to delays. Thank you for your patience.

Check out our newly rebranded MADE Lab investigating how environments shape cognitive development and learning. We focus on abilities typically associated with the frontal lobes, aiming to understand how experience influences how we think, act, and learn. ucl.ac.uk/ioe/departments-an…

Want to know what it really means to support attention and focus in the early years? @ProfSamWass was a guest on Early Years Impact podcast, talking about the science behind how young children's brains actually work. Hint: it's not demanding silence or stillness.

This is wrong. It’s like the media don’t care. As a football community everyone needs to come together to get the attention of the media.
We were lucky. We had a fanbase and squad that were together. That was key. Without that we wouldn’t be here today.

Morecambe FC has zero directors, less than 10 senior players and staff & players still haven't received their full June wages.
Two former directors of the club, who resigned last week, say that we are "days" away from being thrown out of the football pyramid.
Please share our current issues and check the replies below for a deeper look into our situation.
There's a good chance you haven't heard anything about this. We are not being covered in the national media. We have loved the support from other fanbases so far, but we need more.
