Last month I saw Miss Myrtle's Garden at Bush Theatre. A beautiful and heartwarming story exploring dementia in the black community with the brilliant @drtasia.bsky.social as the dementia consultant and phenomenal performances from the cast. The play is on until July 12th - I highly recommend it.

Yesterday we launched our report with the @nhs-rho.bsky.social and @sicklecelluk.bsky.social highlighting disparities in funding and support for sickle cell yesterday in the House of Lords on #WorldSickleCellDay. Read our report and key recommendations here nhsrho.org/research/sic...

Today I will be delivering a talk at the World Health Assembly #WHA78 side event on genomics and sickle cell

Last month I attended the incredible Donald Rodney exhibition @whitechapelgallery.bsky.social and panel discussion. His powerful work, shaped by his lived experience of sickle cell, explored important themes of chronic illness and Britain's colonial past
