I’ve started a starter pack that I will continue to expand that I hope represents the UK #neurorehabilitation community. I am looking for collaborators to update this who might not represent my position - a white, male, ‘professional expert’. Ideally experts by experience.

I recently saw the brilliant neurosciences dept at Middlesbrough's James Cook Hospital.
But it only has 18 rehab beds when the guidelines say it needs 80 beds.
I asked the PM for the resources to develop a world-class new rehabilitation centre to serve Tees Valley.

Revived my current sourdough starter (affectionately called Ambrosia) for some Christmas baking. She is aggressively powerful and I don’t know how to temper the bloom 🥲

With assisted dying dominating the news, please take a moment to consider your own wishes around the end of life.

Planning ahead
Planning things like what type of funeral you want and who to leave your belongings to can make your final days easier, giving you more time with family and friends.

Love this page. I wish Amy Edmondson was here on BlueSky! It’s not only being willing to learn, but brave enough to fail many times in pursuit of that learning 🙌🏻
Trust that you know enough to get started and that you will learn the rest along the way—just like you’ve done hundreds and hundreds of times in the past.

With a fully remote team of just 20 employees, Bluesky has surpassed 20 million users in its first year since opening to the public and is stealing thunder from rivals hundreds of times its size.
At a time when conventional wisdom among bosses is that workers must be in-person to be productive.
