"This is not about wanting to die, but to be able to live the rest of my life with the peace and comfort of having choice. I have come to terms with the fact that my life has been shortened, and I do not fear death, but I do fear how I'll die.” @sophieRblake #letuschoose

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

The NHS is in crisis. We support extra investment to help turn it around, but without fixing social care, no amount of funding will solve the problem.

I urge the Prime Minister to ensure the Spending Review finally delivers for social care and family carers.

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

Caring isn’t just my family's story, it is the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love.

Sharing our story hasn't been easy, but it's important. It's time to bring carers' experiences into the light.

@MrsNickyClark What other biological health conditions can we reframe with therapy? At a time when the Mental Health system is dangerously close to collapse? Your menopause will be over by the time you get to see a CBT practitioner!

A great story about how the Open Mental Health funded, Unbreakable Men app, is making a real difference to men in Somerset. Read more about the app created by our partner @SASPsomerset in the BBC article below:

5 years ago Milton Keynes was dubbed ‘tent city’ by the media. Today, no one needs to sleep rough on our streets. How did we do it? A thread by the Cabinet Member responsible 👇

I got my module result for my second year, and it’s good! Still on track for a first! Bring on the final year of my apprenticeship with the @OpenUniversity! Thank you so much to my amazing employer @SomersetCouncil for giving me the time to do this!

If you can't get up at 3 am and microwave yourself a burrito, you are living in an institution.

The burrito test is used by disability advocates to find out if a particular facility is an institution.

@hannahrosewoods Yep. The most toxic culture where the only retribution occurred after Brand and Ross upset another man. It’s depressing to know this was the backdrop our generation grew up against.

[Reminiscence Learning @RemLearning]

A staggering fact for dementia prevalence in Somerset. This is why dementia services are important, to support families through their dementia journey 💜
