Stephen Thomson is a bowmaker and repairer based at Cockpit in Deptford, south east London. Bowmaking is an endangered craft, with only around 10-15 makers across the UK. It’s difficult to become a bowmaker due to lack of opportunities. However, if you’re able to get your foot in the door and learn, you’re welcomed by a tight-knight and passionate community. @the_bowbusiness by @nickwilloughby1

As it says this is a lovely film, made by @nickwilloughby1 and @secondglance.media, about the end of the much treasured newsstand at Brixton tube, run by @pritesh83295 and his family for 36 years. There is a deep hole in the heart of Brixton, and @transportforlondon are the ones who caused it. by @nickwilloughby1
