Harrow Brothers Cycle 340km to Fight Educational Inequality
Tianyi and Jinyi, brothers from Harrow, are undertaking a 340km charity bike ride from Leeds to Harrow to raise funds for educational inequality.

Wembley Park Promotes Sustainability with Free Bracelet Kits for Swift Fans
Wembley Park is distributing 300 free sustainable friendship bracelet kits on June 21 to reduce plastic waste during Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. The kits contain eco-friendly materials, and fans are encouraged to make and trade the bracelets. The initiative is led by artist Laura Marrs.
Harrow Postmaster Receives BEM for Grenfell and Pandemic Efforts
Sellathurai Chandrakumar, postmaster at Portobello Road, received the British Empire Medal for his community service after the Grenfell Tower fire, managing fund distribution and maintaining services during the pandemic.
Prevent Holiday Diarrhoea with This Simple Probiotic Tip
Dr. Megan Rossi, a gut health expert, advises taking a specific probiotic called Lactobacillus Rhamnosus GG two days before traveling to prevent holiday diarrhoea. Alongside the probiotic, she recommends diversifying your diet with various plants to boost gut microbiota. Additionally, adjusting your meal times and ensuring sufficient sleep can help protect against stomach issues while traveling.
Common Urination Mistakes That Could Harm Your Bladder
A GP has highlighted five common urination mistakes that can harm the bladder and pelvic floor muscles: incorrect posture, hovering, pushing, going 'just in case,' and holding it in. Proper urination habits include sitting with feet flat, leaning forward, not straining, urinating only when necessary, and avoiding holding urine for extended periods.
