Loved chatting to @gracedavies about her beautiful new song, 'roots'. See what she had to say about @TheXFactor , her life in Lancashire and finding out she was a @BigTop40 artist while "rotting" with a hangover 👇

The amount of (sometimes large and well known) companies who want people to dedicate hours of their time writing news and articles for free is ridiculous. Please pay your workers 🙏 It's our passion, but we can't pay rent with 'life experience'. #journalism #freework

So building construction workers are encouraged to go back to work- which to me means my 62-year-old dad has to take the risk at work or be without money 🤔 will any further grants or benefits be made avaliable to this industry if they choose to stay home?

Let’s not forget that they are still yet to see any self-employed payments or grants since lockdown was introduced- My dad has been using his pension savings to get by. My brothers have been forced to work throughout, taking the risk and getting whatever work they can.

Initially, my article was only meant to touch on mental health. Before I knew it, mental health became a central part of the narrative. So many people I interviewed for this article told me that fandom has saved their lives on more than one occasion. 2/3
