Adding a tad more biodiversity to London's wonderful and ecosystem of pesky pigeons and foxes, Hampstead Heath is currently borrowing five rare-bred Norfolk Horn and Oxford Down ewes.

2024 is Barbie's 65th anniversary and LDF is getting on the celebrations, with a little help from Nina Tolstrup of Studiomama, Mattel and Visit Greater Palm Springs. This installation, made up of three interactive pavilions, blends playful design and desert modernism to show how the Barbie DreamHouse has taken inspiration from the mid-century modernist architecture of Greater Palm Springs. Each pavilion on the Strand will be open round the clock so you can see how the experiences differ from day to night.
