A cold winter’s morning with Liverpool’s bee whisperer

‘We can learn a lot from the bees — no fighting, no fuss’

Dear members — every morning Barry Chang wakes up and heads straight to his allotment in Dingle, ready to spend the day with his best friends: bees. Maybe you’ve seen him tending to his creatures, collecting honey from his wooden hives. Or perhaps you’ve seen the countless documentaries made about him — most recently the Netflix short film released last year. In today’s edition, Abi heads down to Dingle to meet Liverpool’s very own bee philosopher, and finds out all about the healing powers of nature’s fuzziest insects. 

But first, your Post briefing — including a shortage in school spaces and a tragic death in Liverpool’s music community.
