This is like a general opening song for any autonomous evening of song & related cultural activities. It is included because I wrote it for the evening Mike Reinstein celebrated the release of his album at Hove Folk Club. Hove Folk Club subsequently turned into the Railway Roots Club in Portslade, which kept singing during the lockdowns with monthly online meetings,& the last song on Minimum Wages was written for one of these online sessions hoping we would meet all up again online next month.

This has been a hard year as a social worker I recognise that I am not facing the reality of the saving of lives and I despair at how the government have treated our nhs people. I have been responding to the needs and crisis faced by children and young people in care . Carers with health vulnerability with challenging teens who won’t follow the rules- risks there create anxiety, carers of children who have been abused and traumatised- limited services - songs like this keep me going thanks maureenb
