@LFC Sending our love to Sonia and all of Willie's family. Thank you for the special memories you have allowed our family to enjoy as Liverpool fans. We are thinking of you xxxxx jac, Mark, Dan & Sam
@MeshCampaign Thanks to Dr.s Emily Rickard and Piotr Ozieranski from @UniofBath for presenting their research on transparency in the healthcare sector to the FDNH APPG today, and to @LarkinJames. The Govt must activate legislation to make it mandatory for the pharma and medical device ..1/3
Today @RuthMacLeod20 of #slingthemesh & researchers from Bath Uni & RCSI attended the #Firstdonoharm APPG to discuss transparency of payments from industry to the healthcare sector. We need a central govt-run database underpinned by legislation building on Health & Care Act 2022
Wonderful news to be among 2024 winners of @TenaciousAwards following almost a decade of running @slingthemesh Already have many ideas on how to use the £20K prize fund to use our collective #mesh scandal experiences to drive improved #patientsafety

For seven years, we at @meshcampaign & others have lobbied for statutory transparency on the payments made by drug & device companies to the healthcare sector. Read our article for @HealthSenseUK-https://t.co/yhigE0bfIz
Such payments were a key factor in the mesh scandal 1/3..

@JasonEvansF8@JonAshworth Mesh campaigners look forward to hearing plans for redress and including rectopexy as per baroness Cumberlidge report in FDNH REPORT. Let's hope fresh ears and doing the right thing are top of the list. Fingers crossed wrongs are righted
Important that awareness is raised globally on the unacceptable, life changing complications of Mesh slings to treat bladder leaks - a treatment suspended in the UK since 2018 and NZ since 2023.
@icsoffice@Medtronic Here in lies the problem. Products made by the sponsor strongly pushed by salesman to Dr's. Medical intervention should never be about profit. Dark world behind the smoke & mirrors of industry. @mhra revolving door. We don't stand a chance, sitting ducks.
(2/2) While we lack the means to assess and monitor the impact of recommendations from patient safety inquiries, it is unlikely that underlying patient safety issues will be addressed. Read more in @ptsafetylearn's report 'Mind the implementation gap'⬇️
(1/2) Inquiries are time consuming. They are also vitally important to harmed patients & families living with the impact of avoidable deaths. A good starting point for reducing this 'burden' would be a system that implements their recommendations & evaluates their effectiveness.
@HSJnews@JuliaCumberlege@PeterWalshAvMA we wonder why patients need your help.
If big phama didn't hold the NHS by the balls, the inappropriate use of devices were monitored and historic lessons learned then we would all be better off. Please resign now you are not fit 4 purpose
@HSJnews Wow. Sorry we were innocently harmed by surgical #mesh that’s irreversibly ruined our lives. We’ll shuffle off and suck it up… @PSCommissioner@carlheneghan
