Throughout lockdown Shilpa Rao, Ayanna Witter-Johnson and Anoushka Shankar managed to pull together and create a new music video for the song Those words. They shot this video entirely during lockdown with the help of the gorgeous dancers Guro Nagelhus-Schia and Vebjørn Sundby to mirror the nostalgic and bittersweet feeling of the song.

So many charities are doing wonderful work to help people in need throughout this pandemic, such as the team at ‘pin your thanks’. Anoushka has created one of the designs for these pins and feels great knowing all profits will be donated to NHS charities. These ‘People’s Medals’ can be gifted as a heartfelt thanks to those who’ve helped during the Covid-19 pandemic.

She chose to design a tree motif to symbolise growth, strength, regeneration and wisdom.
