Personal tweet now. We are receiving a lot of messages from NHS staff who are really struggling. Can’t get out of bed, can no longer face going into work, have no idea how to get through the next shift - struggling.
Please know we are here for you. Here’s where to get help 👇🏻🧵
PWP retention is already a huge problem. Limiting career progression and contributing another barrier to the DClinPsy (with no warning, so no informed decisions can be made by applicants) is not the answer. Increase support and salaries, decrease caseloads. #HEE#dclinpsy
Thank you to @PsyPAG @PsyPAG2021 for providing such a supportive space for me to present at my first ever conference (in the back of a car! 😂)! A great experience, and brilliant to receive such positive feedback. I'm looking forward to working on getting my research published...
I was pleased to hear @ProfRJaspal & @DrAdamJowett discussing the direction of cause/effect for poorer mental health outcomes in LGBT+ people in today's webinar. The minority stress model makes so much sense - growing up in a compulsive heterosexuality context can be so harmful.
A v interesting webinar today on diversity within the LGBT+ community, thanks @BPSSexualities@DrAdamJowett. It's such a heterogenous group - eg LGB issues are often different to T.
As always in psychology, it's important to look at the individual rather than their label/s.
Congratulations to f̵i̵n̵a̵l̵ ̵y̵e̵a̵r̵ ̵s̵t̵u̵d̵e̵n̵t̵ ̵ GRADUATE - @GraceFFJackson on winning the 2020 @PsyPAG2020 Undergraduate Award for her excellent dissertation which addressed the potential negative impact of measures of mental health.
Congratulations Grace! 🙌🏻 🎉
delighted to receive this award! my project meant so much to me and I'm so pleased to be shining a light on the potential negative impact of measures of mental health
absolutely stunned to have won 3 university awards for best degree (!!!), best final year performance, and best research project. thanks @cardiffuni
so proud that my hard work has paid off, with a bloody 95 on my diss.
here's me holding a blank piece of paper to celebrate:
@psychmag @KirstyHConway really well-written, important article that reflects how many LGBTQ+ people feel! and important for healthcare providers to be aware of.
if only the NHS had a recognisable symbol or logo that could have been used instead... perhaps white text on a blue background? 🤔
Kneeling in solidarity.
Worth noting that several groups were giving out snack bags, water, masks and gloves, and squirts of hand sanitiser.

Nurses, midwives, porters, AHPs, cleaners, IT and comms pros, doctors — the list of #OurNHSPeople working incredibly hard goes on and on. It's a challenging time for the NHS, which is why we’re launching a new staff support helpline and text service. 📞💬 https://t.co/mlJrH9lfGr
