Former Harrow teacher Joanne Salley set to fight at Boodles Boxing Ball after topless picture scandal
The fight night, held at the Grosvenor House Hotel, invites only the cream of young London society

A former Harrow art teacher forced to quit the school after a topless photos scandal has reinvented herself as a Christian boxer and is set to fight at a high society ball.

Joanne Salley, 39, taught at the leading independent school for boys for seven years but resigned in 2011 after photos of her showing her breasts were found on a memory stick and circulated by pupils.

Greece ‘worst’ place in Europe for the elderly

Greece has the worst quality of life for senior citizens in Europe, according to the findings of a New York-based nongovernmental organization which determined that Switzerland is the best place for retirees to live.

The 28-page report compiled by HelpAge International in partnership with the University of Southampton drew its conclusions by comparing factors such as pension systems, health facilities and access to public transport in 96 countries around the world.
