A huge thank you to our @BritishRedCross staff and volunteers who supported local people in #Keyham

[British Red Cross 🧡 @BritishRedCross]

British Red Cross staff and volunteers have been supporting #Plymouth residents forced to leave their homes after an unexploded World War 2 bomb was found in the #Keyham area. So far, an estimated 3,250 people have been evacuated. ⬇️

With the tragedy playing out in Gaza and Israel, this is a reminder of how we operate in a conflict.
Our priority is humanitarian access, enabled by our neutrality & the trust we try to enable for all communities in the red cross and red crescent emblems

This #WorldKindnessDay we're encouraging you to be kind to your mind.

The news has been heavy recently, and it can be difficult to switch off. But we all deserve to take a moment to look after ourselves.

Take a break with our self kindness toolkit: https://t.co/3oZcxRPMSz

@ThangamMP @ThangamMP - I am another constituent urging you to support a #CeaseFire and protect the people in #Gaza

We fixed her heating, changed the soiled sheets at home & made sure she was confident. Another successful discharge. Thank you for taking me to shadow, Carolyn 🙂 3/3

Great to see excellent #PatientCentred support on the #Oncology ward #Cheltenham Hospital last week, working well in #partnership with the @BritishRedCross team 🙂 @NHSGlos 1/3

[Helen Sipthorp @HSipthorp]

The lady we supported visibly relaxed as she met us & understood we were going to be there for her to get home safely. She could go to the shop, get the food she wanted and buy herself some flowers 2/3

@UtilitaArenaCDF will Gabrielle be finished in time for people catching 11.30 trains please?

According to our analysis up to 50,000 refugees could be homeless by the end of the year unless the government offers urgent support.

Refugees should be given 56 days to move on from asylum accommodation to help them restart their lives

Giving food and blankets isn't the only way to help people in an emergency.

Cash can be a lifeline, as entrepreneur @StevenBartlett earlier this year in #Türkiye.

@Dorset_ER Last but not least, I enjoyed meeting @PooleHospital colleagues and hearing about some of their areas of focus, including support for people experiencing #homelessness & support for pets while their owners are in hospital 4/4

[Helen Sipthorp @HSipthorp]

An inspiring visit to #Dorset where I visited our @BritishRedCross team in @PooleHospital. We visited a 95 yr old lady that we had supported home a few days ago. 1/4

[Helen Sipthorp @HSipthorp]

I also joined our @Dorset_ER team meeting. I pleased to congratulate Barrie on his 10 years volunteering & to hear about our work supporting people affected by the gas leak in #Portsmouth
