Our final flash and film for the Sea Sunderland project, from award-winning writer, Jessica Andrews, filmed by David Newton. It has been such a pleasure to hear these voices and I hope the words have lifted people in these times. Thanks to all the writers, film-makers and those who supported the project. Every word meant something to us.

“Jo has 'sea salt in her blood'. We loved Jo's film so much we asked her if we could share it in its entirety. It's a stop motion animation of an artist's walk to the beach, and into Spotee's cave. https://t.co/2tlXY8wRxr”
