What a nice thing to do for people. You can see how much they all appreciate it.

Train Hopscotch in a Wheelchair: I had to bunny-hop over the side of the ramp to get off the @LNER 1S13 at Newcastle just now, Because it stopped with Coach M passenger door opposite a pillar. Difficult and dangerous, @DavidHorne.

I work within a medication safety role for the NHS. If medication was late causing a delay in treatment therefore meaning the course had to be started from the beginning again I would expect a DATIX for to be submitted. What are @ASDA doing for governance and medication safety.

Still no refund for the person I know from @asda pharmacy .Lots of apologies ,and promises of refunds within 3-5 working days but no refund. This has been going on for over a month now. @Asda have said they have emailed the individual concerned-no emails received. V.Poor @asda

Unfortunately even the escalation team @ASDA can’t get a response from their own pharmacy team. This is a really poor service. The patient involved had to stop taking the medication due to the length without it. If they want it again they will have to start again from scratch.

@asda escalation team are all very good at apologising for a poor service with their pharmacy service but no one takes any action.The person I know who has been let down by them never got their medication and hasn’t got a refund. Online pharmacy services must be trustworthy.

Yesterday afternoon my wife took the twins out with her sisters for a meal in Archway, North London whilst I took Henry to to the pub with our friends. My daughter Darla had a fit (febrile convulsion) whilst they was walking towards the restaurant on the pavement outside Home Bargains. A young couple helped my wife and her sister. And took them to whittington hospital straight away in their car. My wife didn’t get a chance to say thank you properly as she run in whilst my baby still having a fit. Darla is now stable and doing well and back home. But I really want to thank this couple. They are absolute Legends and hero’s. Can you all please help me find this lovely young couple who helped my family. I want to thank them and treat them as they took Sinéad and baby Darla to the hospital very quickly and if they wasn’t there it could have been another story. Darla is her happy little self this morning and back to normal. Thanks you every one and happy Sunday. Now both twins have had a febrile convulsion, they are extremely scary. Thank you to the wonderful doctors, nurses and staff at Whittington Hospital. If you know this couple please can you give me their number or email. Thank you. Please share or rt. Bosh❤️

1/3 So glad that @cmackinlay is championing better prosthetics for amputees. As a new amputee and wheelchair user there are so many other services that I have waited over 4-5 months for. Specialist shoes (for my remaining foot , to try and save that),

Poor access isn’t just a problem in public transport. Going out for a meal/coffee can be just as challenging. As someone who is in a wheelchair you research the venue and book ahead but many venues are often not step free or unprepared for a wheelchair users @Tanni_GT

I now carry knee pads just in case I need them to access areas. Not the most gracious I know but sometimes necessary. Pretty poor in this day and age

Access to toilets is also a major issue. Even in hospitals I have found some ‘disabled toilets’ that my chair doesn’t fit into!
