@PeterHyman21 Hi Peter, hope you're well. If it's not too much trouble, would you mind 'following' me back, so I can send you a short DM. Thanks!

Great to see #BBCVerify lauded in the BBC's annual report. From covering Ukraine and Gaza to the UK election, the team's hard work is making a difference.

Had a brilliant time back at BBC Westminster last week - especially reporting for Radio 4 again. I’ve now returned to BBC Verify and great to be back and part of their important work.
