Our wonderful volunteers have been getting into the festive spirit. 🎅🎄 They have created handmade decorations for our Christmas tree and made some lovely wreaths. A massive thanks goes to our volunteers for supporting us throughout the year. @ace_national @HeritageFundUK

❤️ Yesterday, we welcomed 18 wonderful Veterans who worked at Bletchley Park during WW2 to return to the once top-secret site for the Annual Veterans’ Reunion. Aged between 97 to (almost) 102, Veterans enjoyed an afternoon tea in the Mansion, spending time together, with family and friends and reminiscing on their wartime experiences. Hazel Halter, who worked in the Naval Section during WW2, is now 99 years old and attended the reunion for the first time. She said: "I am so glad I came here to my first reunion. I have had a most enjoyable time. I was so happy during my time working at Bletchley Park, with wonderful friends. It has brought back so many lovely memories."

England have done brilliantly to reach the men’s #Euro2024 final. But we wouldn’t have got this far without immigration. All of our goal & penalty shoot-out scorers so far are the children or grandchildren of immigrants. And if you trace the families of almost all the squad back, you’ll find migration stories.

Discover how migration has shaped more than just the England team @migrationUK.

Not silly string but sea hare eggs, washed up today. Last time we posted pictures of these many people commented on the similarity between sea hare eggs and the Indonesian snack or dessert known as Putu Mayang...
