What matters to older people in Leeds?: 'Mobility and access needs to be considered when planning active travel and pedestrian zones'...There’s still time to have your say on plans to make it safer and easier to walk, wheel and cycle around the city centre @LeedsOPF
The amazing work on J34 @LeedsHospitals with Sophie from @LUFC supporting patients sitting up getting dressed getting moving awarded a bronze & silver @ReconGamesUK (they have their own bar area too 🤫😉🥰) Well done team 🤩🤩

Nervous to be taking our frailty education programme to a care home audience on Wednesday. I hope I pitch it right. I worked as a care assistant part time 24 years ago. It’s hard and lovely and needs to be paid and valued much much more
