Thank you to all of you who visited our stand on Saturday at #DevonCountyShow! Another fun day talking to people about careers in social care. Loads of children coloured a leaf for our Aspiration tree. By the end of day 3 it was really full with all those future aspirations. We also took some wonderful pictures — and what a team!

Just living daily life can be challenging for many people with long-term health conditions. So adding exercise into the mix can often feel near impossible.

We hope these stories inspire others to try taking #MomentsforMovement: https://t.co/gOK5WQUsQJ

[Mental Health Foundation @mentalhealth]

Struggling to find the time for movement? If you find yourself waiting a lot (even just for the kettle to boil!) – use these moments to move. You may be surprised how these moments add up.

We all know Devon has some of the most magnificent landscapes in the country (we may be a bit biased!) so here's an important reminder before you get outside to hopefully enjoy some Bank Holiday sunshine in #SkinCancerAwarenessMonth to check your skin and enjoy the🌞safely 🏄‍♂️🥾🌳

[NHS @NHSuk]

Check your skin. A new mole or a change in an existing mole may be signs of melanoma skin cancer.

Melanomas can appear anywhere on your body, but they're more common in areas that are often exposed to the sun.
