Today is National AHP day, one of the largest task forces in the NHS and healthcare generally, but little is known or understood about the extent that AHP's play in healthcare!
I chose Occupational Therapy, it's awesome!

I love to learn and engage in new things. Learning improves brain function, staves off dementia and improves sleep!
Time to get learning some more 👩🏼🎓

No, having twins isn't like having 2 children close together. This report shows the financial loss of having twins, there's a link to write to your MP for a fairer maternity pay for those with twins and multiples!
Go ahead, write away...

Across Scotland today, thousands of young people will receive their exam results, shattering dreams, creating new opportunities or securing a future!
Good luck, results don't define who you are, be you, and be proud 👏
