## Resource

Record-breaking heatwaves slammed parts of the West of England, forcing school and service closures while storms and lightning caused damage—but concerts still rolled on. At Stonehenge, crowds gathered for the summer solstice sunrise, while Gloucestershire’s climate circus turned eco-anxiety into art and action. People cooled off creatively with lake-side plunge pools and therapeutic swims, and Bristol communities cleaned up litter as part of a national hope campaign, capped by a musical tribute to the Windrush. A vintage F1 car dazzled at Cotswold Airport, while Malmesbury raised over £20,000 to send medical aid to Ukraine. And at Lacock Abbey, Martin Parr’s final major exhibition opened—his witty, heartfelt gift to the public. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
