We begin a special, mini series on the '81 Hunger Strike by hearing from Tommy McCourt. Tommy is a life long socialist and republican. He was a founder of the civil rights movement in his home town of Derry and still plays an active role improving lives in his community today. Tune in to hear Tommy tell his story as he recaps some recent Irish history ending with the hunger strike where Tommy lost close friends and comrades.

In this episode we are joined as usual by Kev Tony And Connor to hear how North Curve Celtic's NHS Drive has progressed. We will be hearing from Mac who will explain where the money raised had been distributed and also how the project expanded during the Covid19 pandemic. We will also be hearing about the recent actions that the Green Brigade have been involved with during the BLM movement.

In this episode we conclude our two part special with Paul from FAC.

We have also included a small segment about the initiatives Hamper Drive for our NHS.

The NHS Hamper Drive started as a local appeal between friends to offer NHS staff a small token of gratitude for their amazing efforts. Through the hard work of those who launched the appeal - and the generosity of those who responded - the project developed to the scale of delivering hampers to hospitals from Glasgow to Aberdeen. In just a couple of weeks, Glasgow Royal Infirmary, QEU Hospital, University Hospital Hairmyres, Inverclyde Royal Hospital and Aberdeen Royal Infirmary have received hampers.

As the coronavirus situation worsens, and the NHS becomes increasingly stretched, we aim to increase the number of hampers being delivered and reach as many Scottish hospitals as possible to ensure that those on the front line know that they have our support and appreciation. To help achieve this, we are now taking donations via PayPal to [email protected] (please add note NHS) should anyone wish to contribute. Beyond this, should you have access to items or foodstuffs which you would like to donate or have useful hospital contacts then please get in touch via [email protected].

Hampers are being made with the utmost regard for hygiene and safety. The items included are those that NHS staff have told us they desire most, as well as adding some luxuries. All items, including baskets, are being disinfected and the person creating the hamper is taking necessary personal precautions with PPE. Items are purchased in line with Govt. advice re. restrictions and distribution is arranged with NHS staff at the respective hospitals.

Thank you NHS
