Research suggests there are significant barriers and gaps for LGBTQIA people in the health and care services they access as they get older, leading to an adverse effect on their wellbeing and quality of life.
ALT Text reads 'Knowing how to promote inclusivity in assessment, provision and support and how to be active in enabling and supporting LGBTQ people requires sensitivity, familiarity, awareness, capability and not least compassion.' Dr Trish Hafford-Letchfield is shown in a photograph in the top right.

Thousands of little children, doctors, academics, poets, journalists whose homes are targeted, not hit at random or by accidental bombing. This is not defence- this is deliberate erasure of an entire nation and its future generations, while the world is watching #Gaza_Geniocide

Israel killed Prof. Refaat al-Areer, one of Gaza's most prominent writers, poets & activists who spent his life trying to get Gaza's voice to the outside world.
He was killed in a targeted airstrike on his sister's home that also killed his brother, sister & her 4 kids...

The Scottish Physical Restraint Action Group (SPRAG) have today held their final full group meeting of 2023. Over the next few weeks members are voting to shape priorities and actions for 2024.
As they do, I’m reflecting on all that has happened for the group this past year…
