1/ Today I popped along to The Shed in #Crewkerne. Allow me to introduce you to two wonderful people, Mick and Mike, who have built something quite special…

2/ Meet Mick and Mike!👇 Last year they built a wooden #CorsiRosenthalBox in collaboration with @SmartairUk. However they used a metal cage fan & some small HEPA filters, but they built the frame to accommodate @3MUK MERV13 filters. Smart Air asked if I could bring some along… A picture of Mick and Mike ...
3/ Check it out! What a great bit of kit. This is now my very last #CorsiRosenthalBox I’m giving away for FREE - and it’s a special one! My DMs are open 😊 #CleanAir #Somerset 🇬🇧 This is a series of picture...ImageImageImage

Could smokers hold the key to purifying the air? Bear with… Last night I had the most interesting #CleanAir chat with a pub landlord and it has sent me down quite a rabbit hole… 🐇
1/
The pub in question is the excellent Muddled Man in #WestChinnock, #Somerset 🇬🇧 They now have an air monitor and a poster. But the most interesting thing was not the air monitor - it was the discussion it started…

Smoking indoors was banned in 2007, but before then many pubs and bars had ceiling-mounted air cleaners like this one👇 I’ve only had a precursory glance at the tech but the concept is sound.

Starting 2023 as I mean to go on Image
Building more #CorsiRosenthalBoxes Image
Because at a price of £174, and a Clean Air Delivery Rate of 585m3 per hour on the lowest setting… a CR Box blasts most commercial air cleaners out of the water Image

🙏🙏 Thanks to all your amazing donations (£3,512!), encouragement, and support - today I delivered my last #CorsiRosenthalBox to a family just in time for Christmas. It got me thinking about what we've achieved over the last 3 months... A monster thread🧌🧵1/24 Image
It all started in late summer, when @PeteUK7 sent me the kit to make a #CorsiRosenthalBox 2/
Not long after, people suggested I should set up a Go Fund Me to build more... 3/

I have 3 children (I know: yawn 🥱). But they’ve all been ill over the last month. Vomiting. Fevers. Headaches. All = time off school (naturally). Our youngest (6 weeks) was admitted to hospital 2 days ago with a fever. It was, frankly, terrifying - and I can’t help feel…
1/
…maybe we should be doing something to reduce the levels of illness we’re seeing? Is anyone doing anything about this? There are schools moving to virtual teaching due to staff absence!

Anyway here are a few things I learned following a trip to hospital with our 6-week old…

A&E is heaving. Doctors at their wits’ end. Completely overwhelmed. We had to sit in a corridor because there were no seats in A&E. Everyone crammed together. Coughing. Crying. Barely any pandemic lessons learned, it seems.

Soon I’ll have no money left for #corsirosenthalboxes! Requests are coming in thick and fast, and soon I’m going to have to start saying “no”…

⁉️Got me thinking though: why the surge in interest…?
A thread 🧵 1/
gofund.me/3691a0c0
On 24th November 2022 (time stamping for future ref), the Department for Education (@educationgovuk) wrote to all their mailing list members (Local Authorities and signed-up schools). They stressed the importance of ventilation to tackle Covid and flu in schools this winter👇 2/
In this email, the DfE confirmed they are reopening their programme for FREE air cleaning units - which they endorse for classrooms where good ventilation has proven difficult to achieve. I think this is driving a renewed interest in clean air in schools
