Today is International Angelman Syndrome Day. Sean Tunbridge is the only person in Gibraltar with the condition. It is a rare genetic condition that affects the nervous system. His parents, Jane and Wayne Tunbridge shared their journey.


England's Woman's International football team, the Lionesses, will soon be playing two matches just across the border in Algeciras. The side won the Euros back in 2022 and just missed out on the World Cup last year. Ramone Roberts, Algeciras FC CEO, was in the studio to tell us more about both games.


Sir Kingsway, the macaque who went to La Linea, has been released back into the Upper Rock Nature Reserve after receiving medical treatment and being microchipped following his adventure. Our reporter Christina Cortes witnessed Sir Kingsway being reunited with his pack.


And, Young Enterprise group ‘Tiny Minds’ has teamed up with Little English language school to write a book to help promote bilingualism in Gibraltar. Nathalie Chipolina, Lauren Garcia and Anna McComb from Young Enterprise, as well as Chris Hedley from Little English, told us more about the project.
