Today marks one year since Claire died. Claire was kind, driven, and fiercely committed to making things better, not just for herself, but for others. Her story is the reason this campaign exists. Claire’s story brought people together and continues to drive change across Wales.

I cannot relate to this level of interest! How do people ever manage their notifications? 😂
A screenshot of a social media thread on the platform Bluesky. The primary post is by a user named niki grayson, which reads: "right now the astronauts are calling houston because the computer on the spaceship is running two instances of microsoft outlook and they can't figure out why. nasa is about to remote into the computer".

Below this, a reply from Greg Pycroft says, "I can relate." and includes an image showing two different Microsoft Outlook application icons. The top icon is a modern blue "O" logo labelled "Outlook", while the bottom icon is a blue envelope with an "O" labelled "Outlook (classic)". The post is dated 2 April 2026.

I'm really pleased with the way this photo turned out. If you look very, very carefully it's a coyote in the distance crossing the frozen lake separating #Toronto #Canada 🇨🇦 from its islands. Maxed out the 📷 zoom and very little blur even though we were traveling on a busy, moving ferry.
A wide-angle, atmospheric landscape photo of the frozen lake between Toronto and it's islands, under a heavy, grey fog. In the distance, a dark treeline and a tall, thin industrial tower are shrouded in mist. A small, dark silhouette of a lone animal - a coyote - is seen walking across the vast, white expanse of ice in the middle ground. The overall mood is cold, desolate, and quiet.

From last month's holiday in #Toronto #Canada 🇨🇦. We caught the Ward's Island Ferry and spent a couple of hours exploring. This is the view we got when we looked back at the city. Will likely end up on a canvas on the wall.

We walked down to the harbourfront #Toronto, #Canada 🇨🇦. The ice in this stretch of water was like nothing I'd seen before. Looked impressive, but you wouldn't want to try and walk on it. The week we were there (mid-February 2026) the area was experiencing "warmer" temperatures.

Found this beast, and an old orange carriage alongside other pieces of equipment outside the museum of #rail in #Toronto, #Ontario, #Canada 🇨🇦. The amount of snow blew us away. We very rarely get snow like this in Cardiff 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. No chance to visit the museum but hope to do so in the future.

World Cancer Day is a reminder that outcomes don’t just depend on treatment, they depend on timing. In Wales, delays in gynaecological cancer care remain severe. In November, only 32% of patients started treatment within the 62-day target, with wide variation between Health Boards.
