We’re extremely disappointed that the government is making calories on menus mandatory in England from 6 April.

We know it causes anxiety for people affected by eating disorders.
We know it can increase fixations on restricting calories for anyone with anorexia or bulimia. 🧵

Huge congrats to @MM_Markiewicz and @_Jingjingwang as they step into the roles of President and SVP - ESSS is in great hands! ❤️

Feeling rather emotional to be leaving the @edsurgsoc team after a fantastic 3 years 🥲 so proud to have led such an inspiring, motivated and diverse committee alongside the wonderful @ayariad. This year we’ve pulled off 52 (!) events - definition of girl power 💅🏻

My mum has just worked as nurse throughout the pandemic, a year after qualifying. Got COVID at work. She recovered (we thank God) and went back to work. She's now decided to apply for a new role in a different setting and this is what was sent to her by the recruiter. @CWPT_NHS
