Francois Guizot said "the world belongs to optimists. Pessimists are only spectators". It's not always easy but I do try to be more than a spectator.

This is one of my favourite things of this year: Give it a view it's far better than any Xmas card I've found for you 😊

Can you sign this open letter on inequalities in baby loss?

In 2021, Black babies were over twice as likely to be stillborn compared with white babies – and Asian babies were over 50% more likely to be stillborn.

We need to end inequality in baby loss. https://t.co/zkeEl4HLmW

Bad having cough that hasn't gone for 5 days so rescheduled a blood donation. Worse the emotional blackmailemails from @givebloodNHS for cancelling. I feel both angry and guilty. I told you I was ill. Its like when the nice guys starts the mind games that lead to abuse...

Our last consultation event pre LSIP finalisation... great to see such engaged groups! #LSIP

[Iola Shaw @I_M_Shaw]

Thoroughly enjoyed the last ever performance (alledgedly) of "am I invisible yet" @LeedsPlayhouse by @dunstanbruce this evening. Thankfully not (and that's not objectification😉) Great to see a @JaneyGodley pic in her anti-trump mode on the slides of activism too

[Iola Shaw @I_M_Shaw]

@FirstWestYorks Ah it must have just been really late as I got on it at 5.30. The lack of real time update is the rage inducer. I get that it's a 20 minute service now, but as it meant I've got home without time to go to the gym I resent having my brisk walk time stolen too.

[Iola Shaw @I_M_Shaw]

@FirstWestYorks Yet again 49s that pass along the headrow to Bramley about 5pm and 5.15 are cancelled. Normal anger managed by walking the route till a bus is 5 mins from a stop but you switching off the realtime timetable so I cant risk it. You really hate customers don't you?

[Yorkshire Learning Providers @WYLPLTD]

The Yorkshire Apprenticeship Service portal is well on it's way!

You have one week to find your passport or driving licence because its too late to get that voter ID card now. If you know me you know what I think of this and if you don't you can probably make a good guess #postcivilisation

Before vaccines, diseases such as meningitis, tetanus, measles, diphtheria and polio killed or disabled many children and young people.

Effective vaccines massively reduced these risks.

Please take up NHS recommended vaccines- they protect children, young people and families.

@nalsa I stupidly tried to save time by reading Word the flupchart text from a workshop I need to collate. "Apprenticeship" became friendship was only the start of my woes.
