Last night’s Russian strikes on Kyiv, targeting homes and civilians, again show Russia’s contempt for human life and peace. Attacks on civilians are not strength, but fear and failure. We stand with Ukraine and continue supporting recovery with communities. — @COECongress Pdt Gunn Marit Helgesen

It is the season to be jolly but if you are not feeling that it’s ok. Reach out to a friend if you can or a service who will listen. There are no set things to feel or do at this time of year. Be kind to yourself and others. Sending a virtual hug to anyone who may need it.

@coe.int 2030 midterm term climate change targets have been removed in Scotland. A just transition to a net zero economy by 2045 is the aim. Local government is ready to demonstrate leadership to step up the pace of change but we need more skills, capacity, data & of course investment. @cosla.gov.uk
