I have rarely felt the fury that I feel at todays @DHSCgovuk “announcement” on social care. A massive retreat from what was already bare minimum first steps in long term reform. So on top of previously announced delays to the cap and a better means test, here’s what we now have..

@langcatsteve Wow

@dobdob86 Well done, that's amazing.

All lives are worth saving ❤️

@MAddleyComms I said today that this is like nothing i have ever known in 30 years of nursing, yes it is totally soul destroying but if we feel it, what about those who need us and are delaying contacting us or coming in. Stay strong, we all make a difference.

[Bridget Fordham @42tegdirb]

@MAddleyComms Happy Christmas to you and the team Michael. You're all fantastic!

[Bridget Fordham @42tegdirb]

@RoDuSu I'm so sorry for your loss. X

@ZoeTheBall Such a moving final show. Steve Wright in the afternoon was part of my youth and rekindled in my middle age. Love that voice, humour, compassion and empathatic approach to the things life throws at us. X

Hello! Could you maybe deliver those marmalade sandwiches to people who need them rather than leaving them outside a palace? Thanks.

[Bridget Fordham @42tegdirb]

@Medway_NHS_FT @eloisebrett @Jaynerblack @CavellTrust Fantastic Eloise. You achieve the impossible and make such a difference to staff and patients. Proud of you. X

@MAddleyComms Brilliant news! It is thoroughly deserved, fingers crossed they recognise that right to the end.

[Prof Greta Westwood CBE PhD Registered Nurse @westwood_greta]

Privileged to be present in this great @GSTTnhs Governors Hall to celebrate this beautiful work of art of an incredible nurse @EileenSills

This is incredibly sad and concerning. The worlds of many adults with learning disabilities are very small and shrinking daily. It’s awful 💜

[Bridget Fordham @42tegdirb]

@nilou110 @stjohnambulance @johanniter @JUHBerlin Wow Niloufar, where were you? Did you get to see much?

[Bridget Fordham @42tegdirb]

@TinaHetheringto Not sure how I missed your reply Tina, sorry. It's incredible how time just flies. I'm good thanks, 2 grandchildren keeping me busy these days outside of work. 10 years has just gone in a blink. Xxx

The tweet I never wanted to write. The time has come to say goodbye. 5 years to prepare, doesn’t make it any easy. I’m under hospice at home care, & I’m spending my time surrounded by my family. Please buy me a 🍷 to see me out and raise vitial funds. https://t.co/AztN5FziLR ❤️
