We believe in standing up for residents, so we have written to Thirteen 🏡
The response was clear: no - they would not use their voice to call for a rent freeze.
Councils are meant to stand up for residents, especially those facing the greatest pressures. Choosing not to speak up, even when they have the opportunity, is a political decision.
We asked: “Thirteen, the non-profit social housing provider, have increased rents by 1% over inflation year-on-year for 5 years whilst increasing capital reserves to over £800 million. At the same time, social housing tenants face high levels of poverty and deprivation across Teesside which will be further embedded by increased rent. Given this, will the council write to Thirteen and urge them to implement a rent freeze?”
This week I asked Stockton Council if they’d write to Thirteen to urge them to implement a rent freeze, to support those struggling with rising costs 💚
Thirteen’s capital reserves have increased to £800 million, with a surplus of £34 million in just the past year alone.

🚨 Plans are back to build an incinerator burning up to 200,000 tonnes of waste a year; just 600m from nearby homes in Stockton.
🔥 Incinerators release harmful pollution containing particles that can worsen breathing problems, and increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Cannot stop thinking about the people I met in Calais. They deserve so much better.

A wooden reindeer made out of logs and twigs, with googly eyes and a bauble nose.
To boost donations, I’m running a draw for this donated reindeer - £2 per entry and to be drawn 18th December.
Thank you so much to everyone who’s supported me so far 🫶

I’m fundraising for the London Marathon in April, running in support of The National Brain Appeal 🙌🏃♀️
They fund vital research at the NHS National Hospital of Neurology into conditions like stroke, MS, brain cancer, epilepsy, Parkinson’s and dementia.

The image shows the Big Ben clock tower at dusk with text promoting a petition by EveryDoctor. The text reads, “The government is considering bringing back Private Finance Initiative contracts." "The NHS must stay public. Sign our Charter. Stand with us.” The message calls for public support to keep the NHS publicly funded.
The govt is considering bringing back PFI-style contracts. 🚨
+ that could mean billions of public money going to private companies.💸
The NHS belongs to us all. It's not another profit stream for private companies.
