Boost your energy levels Are you among the 97% of Brits who are tired most of the time?* Try these top tips from experts at GR Lanes Health to get your spark back. 1 Get moving A healthy dose of morning exercise can release a welcome burst of feel-good endorphins. If it’s too cold outside, or running just isn’t right for you, try an indoor workout. Aim for the NHS guideline of at least 150 minutes of exercise per week. 2 Manage stress Clear away the mental clutter. Many people find adding meditation, yoga, breathing exercises or mindfulness techniques into their day helps them to feel more relaxed and, in turn, energised. 3 Prioritise self-care While it can be hard for us to find the extra time, it’s extremely important…

We know all the stories, we’ve heard all the names. And for the most part, we’re safe in the knowledge that they’re off the streets. Will never witness the reign of terror they once had. But some people know what it’s like to be at the mercy of a serial killer. Victims who somehow escaped a grisly death. Often, it’s thanks to them that the most notorious murderers are locked away. But after the trial is over and the media coverage dies down, what then? How do the victims – the ‘ones who got away’ – deal with the memories, the trauma? And is it ever possible to move on? The Green River Killer It was a drizzly, damp evening when Rebecca Garde finished her shift as a telemarketer in…

After showing off my healthy ingredients to Dad, I made my dinner. Only, instead of using a jar to cook spag bol, I made my own sauce with tinned tomatoes and beef stock. ‘It’s tasty, Mum,’ said Rio, then 7, surprised. Gareth nodded, too. I’d have a small bowl of cereal or wholemeal toast with eggs for breakfast, homemade soup and fruit for lunch and something cooked from scratch for dinner. Like lasagne or yummy Singapore noodles. ‘I’ve not even felt hungry,’ I told Dad a week later, after losing 4lb. Week after week, I stuck to my plan, occasionally treating myself to a chocolate bar. By January 2020, I’d lost 5st and was size 20. ‘I’m holding my trousers up with a belt,’ I laughed to Dad when I…

• Victim Temel Atacocugu read out his statement in court: ‘The gunman and I looked into each other’s eyes… I was shot nine times. I laid under bodies in the mosque, thinking I was going to die. I tried to lie as still as possible when he came back a second time. I could feel the blood and brains of the person above me running down my face and neck.’ • Janna Ezat, who lost her son Hussein al-Umari, told the court, ‘I weep every day for him and for my family’s loss.

To Boris Johnson, I’ll never forget my daughter Fallon’s first day at school, in September 1998. You see, Mr Johnson, it was also her last. That morning, the school called my husband, Graham, then 40, to say that Fallon, 4, was unwell. I was at the hairdresser’s, so Graham dropped her at the salon. ‘Hi, Mummy,’ she smiled. Then her body started to convulse and she toppled to the floor. Her head smashed against furniture as her body thrashed around. After a week in Great Ormond Street Hospital, she was diagnosed with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, a severe and incurable form of epilepsy. Lesions on the brain also caused learning disabilities. Back home, we had to explain to our other children – Cameron, then 5, and Sydney, 1 - what was happening…

It took just two hours for the jury to find James Hawkins guilty of the premeditated first-degree murder of Charlene Gaither. His mother, Della Thomas, begged the court not give him the death penalty, so she could visit her son in prison. But her pleas failed to sway the jury and Hawkins was sentenced to death by lethal injection. For the convictions of initiating a false report and abuse of a corpse, he received sentences of 12 and six years, to be served consecutively. ‘I do want to apologise to the Gaither family for what I did do,’ Hawkins told the court after sentencing. Charlene’s father, Louis Irvin, said he was relieved by the verdict. ‘My family has been tortured and burdened for three years,’ he said. Speaking about the…

I can’t cope with shingles again Q I’ve just recovered from shingles. It was agony! Could it strike again? Hilary, Swanley A Usually, shingles is a one-off, and chances are you won’t catch it again. It often starts as pain or tingling on one side of your chest, abdomen or face. A few days later, a band of blisters appear that burst and form scabs, before clearing up over the next week or so. Shingles can be very painful, and sometimes leaves pain for months or even years after the rash has gone. It’s caused by the chickenpox virus – years ago, most likely as a child, you caught chickenpox. Although you recovered, the virus lay dormant in a nerve before reappearing as shingles in the skin over that nerve.…

Glenda Young, 56, Sunderland Curled up on the sofa between my mam Joan and my grandma Emily, I listened as the familiar theme tune started. It was my happy place. From about 8 years old, that was where you’d find me, twice a week. Glued to the screen watching the latest episode of Coronation Street. ‘Would you look at her!’ Mam, then 33, tutted. Grandma nudged me, gave me a wink, and the two of us giggled quietly over Mam’s disapproval of Elsie Tanner. She was Coronation Street’s siren, with fiery red hair and an attitude to match. But while Mam raised her eyebrows, I was secretly fascinated. Growing up in Sunderland in the 60s, I didn’t often see women who looked or behaved as boldly as Elsie Tanner. Corrie…

A never-ending engagement Q My partner popped the question 16 years ago. But every time I’ve picked a wedding date, he’s said it’s inconvenient.

After dating since school and starting a family, it seemed James Hawkins and Charlene Gaither would share a life together. They had three children, a daughter and two sons. But around 1999, Hawkins went to prison for aggravated robbery, leaving his family behind. And for seven years, Charlene and her children had nothing to do with him.

Beth Young, 29, from Hull, East Yorkshire Tying a colourful bobble to my dad’s shoulder-length hair, I giggled mischievously. ‘How do I look?’ he grinned, shaking his head so the tiny plaits I’d put in his hair shook wildly. ‘Pretty, Daddy,’ I chortled as he pulled a funny face. That was my dad Pete, then 35, all over. Such a joker. I was 8, and although he and my mum weren’t together, I loved my weekends with Dad. I thought he was hilarious. Especially when he insisted on popping to the shop with me, his new hairstyle intact. There, he bought me a huge bag of sweets. And that was the other great thing about Dad. He loved his food as much as me. But while he loved anything savoury,…
