this is bbc news i'm shaun ley. the headlines. gps are told to get ready to roll out the new covid vaccine from the start of next month. health secretary matt hancock says all nhs staff need to be prepared i know that they will rise to this challenge of being ready when the the police science comes good to inject hope into millions of this winter. no exam results in wales next year — instead a—levels, as—levels, and gcses will be replaced with a system based on teacher assessments a damning report says leaders of the catholic church in england not and wales "turned a blind eye" having baltic them hard, a series of to sexual predators things that caused quite a storm. and the fa chairman greg clarke has there's been a lot of criticism. he been forced to apologise — for using "outdated" language apologise for doing that, he to describe black footballers apologised for his language in his defence was that he used the word,
5:01 pm
he worked for many years in the foot ball he worked for many years in the football in the united states with the word is used combat that that was something that he used by default but except that he should not have used it. and he also said it wasn't language that was regarded as acceptable in this country. nonetheless he has resigned and he is going. that's greg clark. in the last few minutes, habitually we'll get some the prime minister has disclosed that he's spoken to the us reaction to the claims. john barnes president—elect, joe biden. borisjohnson says he's looking forward to working with the new us administration . the former england footballer is on the former england footballer is on the line. thank you for speaking to in a tweet he says, a skill you just heard this as we have in the last couple of minutes, what you make of his decision to go in the light of the controversial remarks have caused? it's a question of whether he has decided to go solely for the remarks he made or whether something else apart from our political correspondent nick eardley is at westminster for us. that. i can't imagine each of the remarks he made and as i said if it
5:02 pm
there is always a race to be the first to get to the oval office when just because of the remarks... i the president takes office but also to be at the front or pretty near the front of the queue of congratulatory calls. yes, telephone rememberalan hansen diplomacy does matter in this just because of the remarks... i remember alan hansen being lambasted because he has a how great coloured context because it is about being seen to have a close relationship players were. he just a black, he with whoever is coming into the white house it is in the boris said coloured. when it first came to johnson has got fairly high up the this country you cannot call people list. we know thatjoe biden spoke black. only relatively recently you don't call black people that many to justin more can be call them black. if you list. we know thatjoe biden spoke tojustin trudeau, list. we know thatjoe biden spoke to justin trudeau, canada's list. we know thatjoe biden spoke tojustin trudeau, canada's prime minister and it was the shot are a particular age will say certain things can bubble your suggesting that he had spoken to the intention is the most important thing and the biggest sadness for me presentjoe biden and it was a tweet and the conversations now loss is being prepared for later, but it is the point he was there to try to make about either women or black players, he said coloured, or the understood that borisjohnson is one of the first major european leaders who joe of the first major european leaders whojoe biden of the first major european leaders who joe biden has of the first major european leaders whojoe biden has picked up the phone too. so, i think downing fa ct players, he said coloured, or the fact that there is a huge needs to street will be pretty pleased with support individuals in this crisis that. a race to get a call with of another conversation is lost because he said coloured. i don't president—elect biden and so, the fate that borisjohnson seems to been fairly have the list, i think
5:03 pm
it would take that as a plus. but we know whether that's the real reason. do not know and what is really important is what was discussed in we can only rely on what we are told that phone call. we know that boris to and actually the detail of the johnson wants to talk about his decision for the reason for his relationship with joe recognition. it's not there in that johnson wants to talk about his week. are you an interview on relationship withjoe biden on climate change, security and also the potential tension over brexit. lunchtime today explaining why you we know that presidentjoe biden did not think it was, you know, you we re did not think it was, you know, you were worried that they were taking talked about the good friday their eye off the ball as it were agreement and some of the brexit about what the real story is. what legislation went to the comments. he is given in yourjudgement, the real has raised concerns to be story about the status treatment and interesting to see if they came up as well. let's face it. it's the development of black footballers in first conversation, the two have not this country at the moment? there's met before and so, i suspect that it not one now because all about greg clark and said coloured stapley will be diplomatic language and that's why i wanted to ask you. large the pleasantries but interesting to see whether or not the brexit issue came up or not. we exactly as they were never read talked about how difficult it was we re for black women in politics, but she the brexit issue came up or not. we were told between 20 and 25 minutes said coloured and no one talked and only so manyjokes can be made about that. because she said in so many questions on how is your coloured and set of black. better be wife and her the children know that very careful and we are they can can make to each other. opportunities to really talk about and analyse deep—seated problems
5:04 pm
they would've had to had to had to that we actually have over have some substance out of it. his semantics. what can happen is we can downing street atoll concern do you get somebody that's very up to date think respect because donald trump is now out of the white house, with other vernacular that should be used is as as blankets is the right whether he accepts that are not are borisjohnson is accepted. that thing that has no interest in the could change the calculation of diversity for inclusion. as the reaching a final agreement with the eu because boris johnson reaching a final agreement with the eu because borisjohnson has put such hope on a us uk trade deal. yes conversation that should be happening out and about greg clark but because these keep happening we there could be recognition of the will lose the opportunity to talk geopolitical sands being moving about the bigger issues. what do you you're going from a situation where think of the challenges that face the president of the united states isa the president of the united states is a cheerleaderfor talented young black players with the president of the united states is a cheerleader for brexit and potential to reach the top of the donald trump summoned back to it, game at the moment? where there not some things was a great idea to someone some things was a great idea to someone whenjoe biden is a sceptic, commit to clear that many chances,, are game at the moment? where there not chances, , are they circumstances, he will take the same game at the moment? where there not chances,, are they not the top of the game? what happens is when they position as the irish government when it comes to trade between the retire, are they going to be able to island of ireland. so, i think it become managers, coaches? that is will make it a bit more challenging the problem. until people see that for the uk government. there is some
5:05 pm
there is a benefit to having black x hope the trade deals are still going to be continuing the way they were. players or any one of the qualities, we heard some ofjoe biden satellites of the weekend, some the people potentially to be his but it is obvious. writing of rahim secretary of state and the foreign sterling is a great football player, secretary of state and the foreign secretary talking about how the but until we change the perception relationship is still really of this, will continue to have great important and how president—elect joe biden must make a trade deal happen, but i think potentially there are a few more barriers to it black players, but no black now. there are some caveats that will be added to the conversations administrators. let me just read this because we accept the statement when it comes to the reservations thatjoe biden has me pretty clear. from greg clark and if there's anything in it, i will put it back i think downing street, there will to you. it has given them decades of bea i think downing street, there will be a challenge slightly greater. get service to the game, it is read that i put the interests of the buffers. to talk to you, thank you very much. 2020 it's been a challenging year and i've been considering standing down for some time to make way for a —— good to talk to you. new chair in her chief executive gps have been asked to be on standby from the start of next month to offer the new covid com plete new chair in her chief executive co m plete we new chair in her chief executive complete we have leadership under vaccination — if regulators say mark. my acceptable words were a it's safe and effective. the government's already ordered disservice to our game and those who enough doses of the vaccine for twenty million people.
5:06 pm
this as the number of weekly referendum ministry. this is registered deaths, of people with coronavirus in england crystallize my resolve to move on. i and wales, has exceeded a thousand am deeply saddened that i have for the first time sincejune. our health correspondent offended those diverse community that we afford so hard to include anna collinson has more. andi that we afford so hard to include a possible coronavirus vaccine has and i think my friends and been likened to a light collea g u es and i think my friends and colleagues for the wisdom that they at the end of a tunnel. have shown over five years and resigned from the fa with immediate approval is still needed and there are questions about how effect. he said he was planning to well it will work and how long it will last, but the uk may go anyway, he just seized the have its firstjabs by christmas. moment. what would be a disservice for his position is if he wasn't the logisitics are complex, the uncertainties are real actively engaged in trying to change the narrative around and including and the scale of the job is vast, diversity. there will be a to the but i know that the nhs, brilliantly assisted by the armed services, will be up to the task. game. it's south africa, it is not i know that they will rise to this challenge of being ready when the science comes good to inject hope into millions of arms this winter. an insult and he would seems of that is coloured, but the idea of using early results for the first words were where the other and the effective vaccine show it could prevent more than 90% of people from getting covid. context of which it is used. the with the main roll—out expected basically said coloured to me, means to take place early next year, the government has announced extra funding for gps, but many something. the south africa context,
5:07 pm
are still urging caution. this is going to take time. those words of a historical meeting, it's going to be required to be given to a far larger number didn't they? you are divided by of patients than the flu vaccine. secondly, it has significant them. ifan didn't they? you are divided by them. if an official determined that transportation issues. you were black or coloured or white, it has been well reported that this your whole life experience was vaccine needs to be transported at a very low temperature, much lower than your fridge—freezer different. at home, —80 degrees. that poses difficulties. what i'm asking you is, do you new research is warning a third of people may not accept a covid vaccination and the uk must do more accept that for some people those to address fears. words have a loaded meaning, that is a small minority may not be suitable simply my words have a loaded meaning, that is due to health reasons. ' 7 words have a loaded meaning, that is simply my question? if you take the coloured people, there was say you i'm quite concerned that people like myself, who are allergic are wrong because your blood. are to certain medications, you going to say that to the coloured people because we know won't be able to have the covid—19 better? surely it is about the vaccine because i'm just not sure intention of what you mean, the word in itself, depending on the if i'm going to be allergic to it intention and how it is received is obviously the main thing. but of or not, which could lead course, she mentioned in south to a life—threatening africa, we are not superior to them, situation where i could go we cannot speak them like that and into anaphylactic shock. with the think there will say, that while a vaccine may be in sight,
5:08 pm
other measures are still important. is an insult to them. so, it is very last week mass testing nuanced composition and have, started in liverpool. however point is, there with the government has announced all nhs intention in the intention is staff who come into contact completely lost because we talk with patients will be tested, about problems in keeping football even if they don't have symptoms, clubs afloat which is what the whole thing was about and be mentioning that he has seen the way elite while students in england may soon be offered tests so they can go home for christmas. but england's test and trace has foot ball been repeatedly criticised for not that he has seen the way elite football players, the conversation to be had, that is not going to be dealing with infected people and their contacts quickly enough. had. just talked about women not this morning its boss defended its record to mps. i'm afraid, much as i would love that testing and tracing on its own would be a silver bullet liking having balls kicked of them to holding back the tide of covid, unfortunately the evidence in the uk, and in every other strongly, and each of these seem to country in europe, is that is not of sparked controversies. the case, that actually the way strongly, and each of these seem to of sparked controversieslj strongly, and each of these seem to of sparked controversies. i have not beena we have to tackle the disease of sparked controversies. i have not been a vendor for clark, he we are is through a variety of different interventions, and we are one of the ways, talking about the fact that he said not the only way. coloured, but we talked about growth official figures show 1597 coronavirus deaths were recorded foot ball coloured, but we talked about growth football is, did he say that today? in the uk in the week ending know he did not. not he is the right october 30th. man for the job, i would not think the number of people dying continues to be above normal levels for this time of year.
5:09 pm
so necessarily, but talking about it is unlikely a new vaccine what happened today, i'm not saying that greg clark is the right man to will impact on the uk's winter wave, stand hisjob that greg clark is the right man to stand his job at the dislike that greg clark is the right man to stand hisjob at the dislike of that greg clark is the right man to stand his job at the dislike of the incident of the day in the incident but it's still a moment for hope. was when the discussion should've no more so than for the married been about diversity and inclusion, couple who helped develop the jab. thatis been about diversity and inclusion, that is now gone. thank you very ugur sahin and oezlem tuereci are the founders of biontech much. the former england footballer and have been hailed as the brains on the resignation of craig clark. behind the operation. anna collinson, bbc news. ade williams is a pharmacist from bedminster, hejoins me now. let's speak now tojohn barnes thank you so much for being with us you been had with the leadership of and a break from the busy afternoon the fa but were talking about the in the pharmacy to talk to us. what wrong subject and we will not be you think would be the biggest able to talk about the problems challenge to colleagues for the facing black players that want to sharp end of this. clarifying that get into management. does what happened today with regards to greg the art secretary said that this clark undermine all the work of the would be a collective nhs effort in fa is trying to do around diversity
5:10 pm
the pharmacy will have a key part in and inclusivity in a boardroom that and our world will be working levels and the answer to that as part of the care teams and question is simply yes and i think thatis question is simply yes and i think that is the decision that the fa localities and some of the details have clearly ta ken are still being worked out, but i that is the decision that the fa have clearly taken along sacred clark that he cannot stay in his think the to say the people said position as a result of those comments which have been made in the certainly the whole nhs is ready to support this and where appropriate, widespread criticism which came about as a result of that. let us they will be a part of this effort not forget that the fa only this year introduced a new diversity code as well. you know from your records, people that are, because the medicines they receive in a regular increasing diversity and that basis are vulnerable, have the type undermines the work when you considered that it wasn'tjust one of conditions them mean they are bad turn of phrase, not for use of particularly susceptible in support language, at some point, it was of this be a part of the decisions of this be a part of the decisions of who makes it first. the role they littered throughout that hearing that greg clark featured in today play in the flu vaccine in which with the dc ns committee. so, it is what we have done is we have the result of that in the fa clearly feel that the work they're is being populations, especially for those who are resistant and confused undermined by their chairman, the figurehead of their organisation.- be fairto him, figurehead of their organisation.- between two affirmations about be fair to him, he did figurehead of their organisation.- be fairto him, he did not figurehead of their organisation.- be fair to him, he did not hear the vaccines. so have a key role to testimony and have not heard the
5:11 pm
support that and with this, we will testimony and have not heard the testimony i only heard the extract. be, but also we also have the skill set that we are needed to help with he may have sent them before, but he actually did say them again today, the vaccination exercise and can the lease they were talked about when he was asked about them. did also do this. the logistics are very complicated but one of the things.|j not resolve from them. some of the criticism that he is making of the decision is that some of this is agreed. carry—on. about generations in the football, complicated but one of the things.|j agreed. carry-on. but we also see us because the nature of the job, of the nhs is really being able to you're an administrator of a long and eventually you end up at the top model itself, special primary care is of us have together to do we need of the fa, but is it also about the to do to protect their communities message that's installed the people in the details will come out to see they're coming at a football or nude if it will be a challenge but i footballer supporting footballer grassroots level about how in touch think we concern the confirm that we that administers the game is with will see some quick local the game itself? and that's clearly coordinations, particularly around the networks for which role is the the game itself? and that's clearly best way to do super things but what the point, it is not much of a defence in this day and age that the was required may be a lot but i terminology would be acceptable. it's not acceptable and therefore as think that is new that the a result, there are consequences for pharmaceutical teams or relish the
5:12 pm
opportunity to help their that and it it's not a defence to communities to over this. and that's say that language which may have been some acceptable years ago is not now. the advanced show the child vaccination row and flu leadership on this issue and as to tackle issues of discrimination and virus could be a bit sceptical about racism in football, inclusivity, vaccinations but can ask you one final thing was back to you and gender equality across the board and when comments like this are being other pharmacies right now have the made by the fa chairman and a very facilities that would allow you to public forum, it is simply not a cce pta ble public forum, it is simply not acceptable and as a result, it is store vaccines and —18 degrees. because that is quite a temperature the fa and the fda's view that those to maintain stability is quite to comments undermining the work that the fa is trying to do and we have maintain but many of the people in to talk to a a very clear question, the country, where only be coming is he the right individual to be through the aware of the details of this organisation at a time where this and what i think you'll see is they are trying to move forward, that it this and what i think you'll see is thatitis this and what i think you'll see is that it is not to be the scale of trying to make changes across the board as i say and regards to this, as we can only do this racism, discrimination within together in partnership and so, it is not going to be one side, i think football, gender equality. is he the it's going to be how different sides right individual to be leading that in different clinicians work organisation forward and i think
5:13 pm
there is real concern with regard to together and i think that is where this is going to be. the community those comments they made today he is pharmacy will have a more key role not the person that they feel should to play in others but the committee be leading the organisation at this pharmacy will also be part of that time. forever takes over, he's now effort. you will not have those gone with immediate effect, how big facilities, as a people have are the challenges facing the fa developing this in the roll—out over this? i think usually. i was happens. it's very special, so that is not commonly where medicines are trying to do a great amount of work behind the scenes and notjust in stored at the stub is not something that i think you'll find in most football, a boardroom level across community pharmacies but there will the board with regards to increasing be exceptions to that and i'm the board with regards to increasing conscience that some of his the number of the ame coaches and collea g u es conscience that some of his colleagues will have much more roles and vaccinations. we have facilities football, and women in football and that have the capacity there and it it's a difficult situation when may be called on to support this there's such a clear and significant effort. thank you so much. setback as this. they want to be moving forward to come they want to mass testing for coronavirus will be feel that that work is drawing the rolled out to 67 more areas come the spotlight is being drawn on in england. areas including the efforts they are making and nottinghamshire, yorkshire, u nfortu nately parts of the west midlands the efforts they are making and unfortunately in situations like and swathes of greater london this it really does undermine the work that they are doing. have to will receive hundreds of thousands
5:14 pm
of new rapid "lateral flow" tests. look long and hard and who could potentially coming to of the the health secretary said he hoped the new tests would find covid—i9 "wherever it is". organisation. and the work that's the rollout follows the launch of mass testing in liverpool last week. going on is what is looked at and not comments like this which is clearly leaving organisation in a desperate situation. and now we need the welsh government has cancelled end of year exams — for gcse‘s, as levels and a levels. of finding someone who will be able to ta ke of finding someone who will be able the welsh education minister to take them forward and obviously let's not forget greg clark was only kirsty williams says called to the the government will work hearing today to try and talk about with schools and colleges to establish teacher—managed assessments. assessements will be externally set and marked — a but delivered in the classroom under possible pay to a possible remedy to teacher supervision. the expectation from the welsh government is that this the financial difficulties facing football at the moment and we have work will form the basis the plight of the 72 clubs who were for centre—based grades that will be struggling to make ends meet as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, linked to an agreed national he was only called essentially to approach to provide consistency across wales. discuss a potential bailout from the it follows the decision to already premier league to the efl clubs, and move all exams in england by three weeks. yet here we are come the end of the in northern ireland — day for the fa looking for a new

however, pretty quickly they were asking questions as a part two extracting oil from underground. they're the ones with about what the new assessments the money is going. isn't it already will be, teacher—led assessments. in their self interests to invest in some, we're told, the welsh government wants to be those technologies? your actually externally set and marked, but does that mean actually more testing over a longer period, right, we've been seeing a turning potentially more work than they're used to? point in the future as ray clearly there are also questions, particularly for a—level students, about how their qualifications might green. as we are looking to come out be seen in the future. bear in mind, at the moment, pupils in england and northern ireland of the current coronavirus pandemic and build a cut economy that's more will continue with gcse and a—levels, albeit sitting them later than traditionally, sustainable so that we don't had so will their grades still be seen as equal across the border? the welsh government says it's already conferred with universities into another global disaster it's and had assurances that pupils in wales won't be disadvantaged. very clear that its investment in however, this is a very big greenjobs and very clear that its investment in green jobs and other green call for wales to make for the future of these students. infrastructure and in restoring nature that's going to be the way that we shape that better future. and i think it's an example of an exciting time for the finance community and as you say absolutely the headlines on bbc news. heading behind this on a global scale. but an exciting time for all borisjohnson speaks to the us president—electjoe biden to congratulate him on his election of us. opportunity to shape a better victory over donald trump future for future generations. how gps are told to get ready to roll out the new covid vaccine much is it possible to get

from the start of next month institutions like for example by the health secretary. no exam results in wales next year — pension funds to shift their investment, and the money in which instead a—levels, as—levels, many people rely on their old age and gcses will be replaced with a system based on teacher assessments. they will get the maximum return, how difficult is it to get institutions like that to start to make what are in a sense ethical decisions on one part but also for a damning report has concluded that leaders in the catholic church in england and wales "turned a blind eye" to sexual predators. the beneficiaries to make decisions the independent inquiry where there are risks involved into child sexual abuse examined more than 3,000 accusations inevitably. he found reliability and dating back to 1970. saying something like the audit it concluded that the industry for decades and decades but archbishop of westminster, the broad trend has been this is cardinal vincent nichols, been a profitable thing to support. now ask inches of port technologies chose to protect the reputation that improve that but don't know if of the church over the well the scale is there. i think it's being of survivors and victims. absolutely the other way around. pension funds come the long—term the cardinal has responded to survivors who have been calling for his resignation. risks posed by climate change are well, i quite understand how some really, really pertinent to them. of the survivors will say that and i think it's exactly because and how they will feel that. i know they're angry, there has been a recognition of the and i understand that. it's a very difficult thing climate —related risks for investments that we are starting to see this very clear direction of to live with for me.
5:18 pm
travel towards green finance, green funding and recognition of climate i know people are angry, —related risks and association with and i accept that, but i also have a job to do. all investments. if people are i'm told to carry on moving in that direction already doing it, and i will. that's, as i say, where my what purpose has the summit been direction comes from. designed to serve? i think it's richard scorer is the head of the abuse team at slater and gordon, obsolete about putting in place a and represents some of the survivors. renewed committee renewed sense of i think his position is untenable urgency about that direction of and the criticisms are very severe travel. the direction is very clear and the criticisms are very severe and they relate to cases in which they are personally involved which i but it's also recognising that that think was an important point and direction of travel needs to be where time of the failures of the happening very rapidly. the scale of the climate crisis is very clear and institution in a very serious, but we're talking about cases in which it really is the next couple of he has been personally involved and if anyone in any other part of yea rs of it really is the next couple of years of where we really need to be turning the corner. and although we public life would be subject to this are starting to see the science of kind of criticism, maybe they would thatis are starting to see the science of that is nothing at the scale that's design and i think that is what he required yet. it's basically as we needs to do. are in the week that would have been we now speak to deirdre mccormack who suffered sexual abuse within the catholic church as an adult. she has decided to waive her right the big international climate conference, it's been delayed for a to anonymity to speak year because of coronavirus into to us this afternoon. these next 12 months where we are
5:19 pm
looking not just at the finance community but actually to the whole your reason for speaking out is of global economies and in presumably because of how the church particular at the nations of the deals with people who have gone to world come forward with ambitious the awful experience you went through in the future. absolutely. climate plans. and of course we now have a new president elect in the what do you make of the response united states who has a very different attitude to climate change than his predecessor. in particular effo rts what do you make of the response efforts of our? well, today, to be honest, personally, at some level the eyes will be looking at the united states to see how they react. we will keep looking at you because with the report is saying is that i some recent delights of going off in was expecting even more damning and the studio so i don't know if that's but i'm very shocked by is that it's some sort of metaphor for what we are talking about in terms of the challenge of finding new sources of power. they are back on, someone just going to carry on. i do not found another 50 p. very interesting understand why the pope has said article over the weekend that said he was a strange paradox. people that he wanted to stay on. if any have stopped long does it travel because of the coronavirus and the airlines in trouble and all the rest other organisation where someone has felt like this, it would be asked to of it. people were elected to go on step down. why wouldn't he? shall we planes. a dire thing in europe and
5:20 pm

he had been coping well, sympathetic and the leadership and but his treatment was stopped it might be some difference in the because of lockdown. church in the long term. at the end of my case,, they told me to keep one of 1,700 mental health patients across north wales who were wrongly discharged. quiet and said then i'll get it. i was absolutely convinced, and she ijust got a voice mail message, which i could hardly hear, and just a very blunt letter, and, you know, in your head you're just on a precipice, not knowing what's next. talked about my letter of apology betsi cadwaladr health board has apologised to those and soi talked about my letter of apology and so i had a letter of apology and 00:24:28,326 --> 2147483051:49:04,714 is acknowledging all of what he had 2147483051:49:04,714 --> 00:00:29,656 done and it also had an e—mail to like ryan who feel let down. and the welsh government says it has invested almost £10 million in extra services. but figures from swansea university show that across wales 43% fewer people contacted their gp during lockdown for severe mental health issues. i worry that some of those people will have — will spiral downwards, that they will lose their trust and not want to seek help again. in some severe cases i reckon we might see some deaths, unfortunately. simon's determined to use what time he has left to keep racing and raising money. but as wales emerges

from a second lockdown, it is clear the nhs will be battling notjust the virus, but the backlogs caused by the response to it. wyre davies, bbc news. for so many people when restrictions were first introduced in march. with tougher measures once again in place in parts of the uk, people are returning to the hills, country trails and parks for a bit of a boost. john maguire reports. the sights, the sounds and the smells of a perfect autumn day. although the government advice in england is once again to stay at home if possible, unlike in the spring, now, when it comes to heading outdoors for leisure, people aren't limited to just one session of exercise. they can stop, sit and relax.

this is attingham park in shropshire. along with all other national trust gardens and parks, it was closed in march for almost three months, but reopened in the summer and is very popular today. it's lovelyjust to be able to get out of the house and enjoy the fresh air and get the children out and about, really. it tires them out and it makes it more manageable, doesn't it, being at home rest of the time. so it's really important for us. we're getting out and seeing the deer and exploring. fresh air and getting exercise is really important, i think, for health and mental wellbeing and things. we were just chatting the other day — it's really important to feel that you can get out and explore. attingham receives more than half a million visits a year. the majority of people live nearby and treat the estate like their local park. there's hundreds of people about, but you just don't see them. you just get lost on the estate and it's wonderful and free. it's great. i call these days... what do i say? gin and tonic without the gin.

just a tonic to be out in the fresh air, feeling safe, feeling happy and comfortable. visitors need to book and social distancing measures are in place. but there's space to spread out — hundreds of acres. and, for children like joshua, much to explore. we've been climbing on the trees and finding spiders. and we found some mushrooms down there, didn't we? yeah. on the second lockdown, when they said that it was happening, i did look to see if they were still open in terms of the parks and stuff. and it was quite nice to be able to still be able to get out, because then it doesn't feel like you're confined to your back garden as much as as the first time. all national trust buildings in england and northern ireland are now closed in line with government guidance. some reopened in wales yesterday, with restrictions. 2020 continues to be a huge challenge for the charity. let's make sure that people can enjoy the outdoors. let's make sure they can enjoy our gardens and our parks.

let's make sure that their mental and physical health is topped back up again, because these are tough times for everyone. but connecting with nature isn't restricted to the countryside. david lindo, known as the urban birder, says the spaces don't have to be wide open, but your mind does. all you need to do is to step out of your house. sometimes not even to do that — just look out of the window and just to connect with nature. because it's all about getting onto nature's wavelength. it's not about necessarily trying to identify everything you see and here. it's all aboutjust being able to know that that's around, to blot out the sounds of the human hubbub around you. we know lockdown can be depressing, frustrating and isolating. but, if you can, there is solace to be had outside the four walls that confine us. john maguire, bbc news.
