Walked past HMS Belfast last night. It always makes me think of my late Uncle Roy who served on that ship and used to talk vividly about his time in the navy when I was a wee boy.

For those facing the biggest challenges Community Link Workers do life-saving work operating alongside primary care colleagues - to cut these vital roles is to cut a lifeline for those who need it most. Adding more cost to the system further down the line. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-6…

Lives could be lost over link worker cuts, say GPs

Doctors say community link workers allow them to focus on diagnosing and treating medical conditions.
