Ordered a new #wheeliebin from @leedscitycounc1 as a cheeky squirrel has taken up residence having chewed a hole in the lid. Beautiful shiny new bin arrived whilst out and they took the wrong one away! (Squirrel happy and safe dreaming of new home in the garden but laughing ) 🐿️

#MedTwitter please help me on my quest to end the #healthcarepostcodelottery for #PGT by sharing. There should be equal access in the north and south of England
Highlighting the geographical inequality for access to NHS funded treatment in England #PGT Patients in the north deserve exactly the same as those in the south @NHSEngland @leedsfertility @Care_Fertility @FabianLeedsNE @LeedsHospitals @PET_BioNews gbr01.safelinks.protection.o…

Considering I only decided to do this when I woke up, not bad going! First #pelofondo since my last #STC and new hips. Far cry from what I could do. But it’s a U shaped curve and I’m headed up the right hand side! @iamicaniwillido @AnthonyNolan @onepeloton @leedshaem πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œ

Harrowing words from a senior emergency medicine doctor showing the despair at not being able to provide the level of care every doctor hopes to for their patients. Every doctor, nurse & HCW can empathise with this right now. Shared w/ permission. Pls RT to get this out there.

Can we have a #NewYearsResolution to please stop the vitriol towards GPs Cc. every commentator who has perpetuated an anti-Gp narrative
The anti-GP violence, abuse & aggression continues unabated. This is our waiting room @wilsonstsurgery y’day after a patient trashed it. Negative media narrative, anti-GP rhetoric, unrelenting demand & unrealistic expectations leads to this level of violence. Where will it end?

Anthony Nolan was a little boy who changed the world. Today, he would have turned 51. Although a lifesaving match couldn't be found for Anthony, his mum Shirley went on to set up the world's first bone marrow register (us!). Happy Birthday from all of us, Anthony.

Here’s a nice thing. The TV version of This Is Going To Hurt is all about the mental health of doctors, and culminates with the death by suicide of a junior doctor called Shruti (spoiler alert). There is a scene where a tree is planted in her memory, shot at Ealing Hospital. 1/3
