Things to keep you busy

As we are currently encouraged to stay home, many of us are looking for something to do, whether it be to keep intellectually engaged as work slows down or to provide a positive distraction from the news headlines. To help with this, we have been in touch with all of our partners to bring you a carefully curated selection of content, from gardening tips to tours of exhibitions online, and more. We will be updating this regularly and are welcoming ideas, suggestions and contributors, so please do get in touch.
