@Amtys Why am I not there?

Education should include training in how to be calm and unafraid. Since scientists now recognise the significance of warm-heartedness and peace of mind in personal and social well-being, it’s time training to cultivate such qualities was included in the general education system.

@noodles_nood Just say, Sexism in the workplace is illegal (pause while you look them up and down) and rudeness is an ugly look on you. Then walk away.

In my time in the NHS I've never seen this level of pressure, staff are treating more people than ever, whether that’s GP appointments, A&E attendances or category one ambulance call outs.

We’ve launched a plan to help, including more beds and ambulances across the country.

When you think of donating to a food bank, you may think of giving pasta, tinned food or cereal. 🥫

Though this food is always appreciated, the #Foodbanks in our network are also in need of some more unexpected, but essential, items.

Here's 6 unexpected things you can donate ⤵️

[Motivational Quotes @motivational]

Kindness

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Compassion is to have a sense of concern for others and the community. Look at today's world—we are interdependent. We can't think only of my nation's interests. We have to take the whole world into account. Let us live happily together, helping each other rather than fighting.

[Amanda Pritchard @AmandaPritchard]

Every day our NHS colleagues are performing tiny miracles in the way they care for patients and each other. Another amazing example of remarkable people doing everything they can to make a difference.

[Lou Farbus @LouFarbus]

@JustForYouJCD Good for you!

‘I understand those who are a little more hesitant, as that was me too.'

Nurse Toyin from @StGeorgesTrust was initially hesitant but after processing all the evidence decided to have the COVID-19 vaccine. Toyin is now encouraging others to #GetVaccinated. https://t.co/O0BX1H51xT
