If the above stretch ain’t compatible with you for reasons like having bitch ass knees, here are some alternative and amazing stretches for the muscle in order of easiest to hardest (but imo least to most helpful) to perform:

However, just keep in mind that none of these stretches will help you if you have a herniated disc, which compresses the nerve roots that protrude from the spine itself! For that you’ll for sure need some different medical intervention.

Please support my autistic sister during benefit sanctions!!

Wednesday, June 3rd: Hello everyone, I’m Gem, and I’m setting up a crowdfunding campaign for my sister Cheryl. Her Universal Credit has been sanctioned for 91 days, and she urgently needs support to get through the next few months.

As stated in my previous post, my sister, who is in her 30s and autistic, recently caught the flu. While she was unwell, her unemployment advisor requested that she submit her CV for a job application. Unfortunately, due to her illness, this important task slipped her mind, and she ended up applying a few days later than expected. As a result, she has been sanctioned for 91 days, until July 15th, leaving her with a minimal welfare payment of just £7 for the entirety of June.

This is clearly not sufficient to cover her bills or purchase groceries/pet supplies. However, thankfully, due to the help of our previous post, she was able to pay off her utilities, and on June 1st, she was awarded a hardship payment of £150 to help her until the end of June. She is also awaiting word back from an appeal regarding the sanction

Unfortunately, she still has £214.91 in direct debits due in the next week and needs assistance in covering them. I also have a £93 bill due this month that I need help with. It is also my birthday on the 19th, so I would really appreciate it if anyone could help us!!

I know this is a lot to ask, but if anyone could spare any amount to help my sister and me get by, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would mean a great deal, and sharing helps just as much. 

Thank you ❤️

£31.71/£300!!
