"All of us have a responsibility to get this report heard and implemented" Prof Sir Ian Diamond at #SudlowReview launch. The review stresses the importance of data to address health challenges & how to overcome barriers. Read the report here: https://t.co/urX0P1oSih

@DanMissailidis That it is possible to get better.But once you are better,it is horribly hard to talk about what helped. There seems to be a rhetoric that if you recovered, you didn't have CFS/ME.It is a horrible, horrible illness & we should be trying to help more people get better/giving hope

Take it in. The first female chancellor. The first housing secretary who's actually lived in social housing. The first education secretary who was on free school meals. An energy secretary who actually believes in aggressively fighting climate change. Not a bad afternoon.

[Yvonne Roberts @YvonneARoberts]

Vital reading Rachel Sylvester interviews Dame Lesley Regan the new women’s health ambassador in The Times. ‘The NHS was designed by men for men. My role is trying to reset that.’

[Hannah Crush Hiles @HannahHiles]

My mum’s book group read @DrMichaelMosley’s Just One Thing recently and one of them produced this summary of his brilliant, sensible, achievable advice (that we could all benefit from following!) #MichaelMosley #RIPMichaelMosley

[Square Peg @teamsquarepeg]

Absolutely spot on @EdwardJDavey.

Caring, carers are at the heart of any country.

Advocating for your SEND child is an all consuming necessity, a dehumanising hunger games. We are pointy-elbowed, adversarial, challenging if we do, feckless & lazy if we don't; lose lose.

Good to see @Keir_Starmer endorsing another recommendation of @thetimes Education and Health Commissions for more sport in schools. Vital for mental as well as physical health https://t.co/niqihvjzCo

[Rachel Sylvester @RSylvester1]

Great to see @wesstreeting backing @thetimes Health Commission recommendations on data and technology, as @eleanorhayward reports https://t.co/0d1MnVmufi

[Claire Bithell @ClaireBithell7]

@Fionas_Story This happened to me too. I had almost lost hope, but found an excellent GP who took the time to give me the evidence based advice. I got better completely. Previously I had been horribly ill for 3 years. Please do keep talking about your experiences because it will help others.

[Hearing & Dementia @HearingDementia]

We so often complain about the lack of press about healthcare science and understanding about healthcare scientists... but are we making ourselves known to the press, ready to answer the call, knocking on the doors?

[Hearing & Dementia @HearingDementia]

Dr Claire Bithell challenging us to get involved in communication, engaging with public, press and policy makers, to bring the changes needed for the NHS. You can have a voice! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Food giants make most of their profits from unhealthy food & drinks - much openly targeted at children. Hard hitting @BiteBack2030 #FuelusDontFoolUs demands advertisng restrictions, reductions in fat, salt & sugar & Govt action to enforce @RSylvesterTimes

@katlay Congrats Kat. It has been great working with you, and the new job sounds exciting. X

Stop stumbling over sick pay reform - good to see another @thetimes Health Commission recommendation being endorsed, this time by Conservative MPs @RobertBuckland and @GullisJonathan https://t.co/FQAHsiix4L

[Kate McCann @KateEMcCann]

Really enjoyed talking about the culture of the NHS with brilliant @annemarieraffer, @DrWaheedArian and @JamesTitcombe at the Times Health Commission event this morning. The full report is v worth reading, all online here: https://t.co/OkfBRr0hW7

[Rachel Sylvester @RSylvester1]

@AmandaPritchard Tackling obesity is a key part of @thetimes Health Commission’s Ten Point Plan to save the NHS https://t.co/ejtNAYLAMy

[Jamie Oliver @jamieoliver]

Really proud and honoured to have contributed to the @thetimes Health Commission's brilliant report. This is so much more than another call to action - it’s a blueprint for fundamentally changing the nation's health and creating an environment that promotes a brighter and healthier future for everyone. No more excuses - our kids health can’t wait!

[AMRC @AMRC]

We're pleased to see the new #TimesHealthCommission report includes a recommendation for the NHS to prioritise research: https://t.co/bgC1fEA4HE

Delivering this would mean faster and more equitable patient access to transformative diagnostics, treatments and cures.

[Claire Bithell @ClaireBithell7]

Breaking: Keir Starmer commits to patient passports if @labour is elected. Great to hear this as it is one of the main recommendations of The Times Health Commission report launched today.

[Kate McCann @KateEMcCann]

NEW: Keir Starmer commits to delivering patient passports if Labour is elected. Times Health Commission says the digital record/app would cut delays and make it much easier for patients to move around the NHS:
