Spending Easter Day at @JamesPagetNHS, where team is caring for my father, brought in by ambulance on his 91st birthday. This banner reminds me why I’m so grateful for our internationally recruited #NHS staff. This time, a very personal thank you. 🙏 #ExpertsInOurMidst #GlobalNHS

Day 2 of the #UKGlobalHealthSummit had a powerful and emotional closing.
@BeccyCooper4Lab and @monicabeharding spoke with conviction, honesty, and heart.
There were moments in the room that were hard not to feel. A recognition of what the @NHSuk owes to the world. A call to move into responsibility. And a clear, unambiguous message to international health workers: what you do matters. Not as a footnote to global health but as its future.
Thank you to both MPs. 🙏

Day 2️⃣ of the UK Global Health Summit has just seen a fascinating and wide-ranging session: Harnessing Diaspora Engagement.
Drawing on recent research and lived experience, this session explored how diaspora communities are contributing to health system resilience in fragile and conflict affected settings.
The panel, moderated by Israa Mohammed, Chair of Global Health Partnerships Cymru, also reflected on their personal experiences and the service delivery benefits of diaspora engagement in the UK and other contexts.
Taking part was @iamwinny_ who has written this guest blog for us about her own experiences of youth diaspora engagement, and leadership.

If the UK benefits this substantially from health workers trained elsewhere, what responsibility does that create? #UKGlobalHealthConference #HealthPartnerships #globalNHS #ExpertsInOurMidst globalhealthpartnerships.org…

Humbled to have Israa Mohammed as new Chair of @THETlinks Cymru. Do have a listen &/or read of this wonderful interview as Israa shares her own, deeply personal story, and outlines her ambitions as Chair.
