Really enjoyed #ACompleteUnknown the biopic of Bob Dylan and particularly the #NewStatesman podcast on the protest song - so well done by Dylan through the civil rights movement. In an age of change, so surprised there’s not been more protest songs.

Listening to lived experiences of people with learning disabilities and autistic people, as part of the #OliverMcGowanTraining and I’m heartbroken and inspired at the same time. Gosh we need to do better. Not just in the NHS but as humanity. #LearningDisabilities #LivedExperience

We’ve been getting creative developing a #LoveActually skit for Tik Tok. A new way to get our Pharmacy First message across as hospitals get busy and Christmas approaches. This is behind the scenes with my brilliant team. #BLMKWinterActually

I was born in the early 50's before the polio vaccine had been invented. I contracted actual polio and spent months in an isolation ward with no physical contact with family. Fortunately I was lucky and emerged largely unscathed. Many did not. It's a real danger, don't allow it to come back.

On Friday we said goodbye to our Chair, Dr Rima Makarem who has led our organisation since 2020. She’s been such a huge advocate for us especially for the #DennyReview. We wish her all the best in her new role in Somerset. @blmkhealthcare.bsky.social

Today, we had the pleasure of sharing valuable information with ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) students at MK College about local health services. We discussed how to stay well this winter and make smart choices about the services available to them. #BLMKwinter

Never forget that in 1861 Charles Darwin wrote in a letter to a friend..
“But I am very poorly today and very stupid and hate everybody and everything"
...because this is my favorite reminder that we can do great things even if we don't always have great days
