@__alexhowell Love to see this mate. Hope you're keeping well

I lost my dad over Easter

Going to Palace with him was special and brought us so much joy together even when things were bad or went wrong

So many shared memories with him that will stay with me

This piece is about those memories, in his memory #CPFC

My wife, Katy, is running her first half marathon in a few weeks time to raise money for Myaware. Any donations or sharing of the link would be really appreciated (and thanks to those who have already been so kind!) https://t.co/RfenxoCJdJ

We're delighted to share the publication of our Cochrane Review: Rituximab for myasthenia gravis

This systematic review examined the RCT evidence for this B cell depleting therapy in myasthenia, and is now available via the Cochrane Library.

Had a great morning visiting and talking about all things local government with some brilliant questions on the way.

The LGA has been making the case for extra funding for councils.

Watch LGA Chair Cllr Louise Gittins @weezegee on @SkyNews give her reaction to today's Budget #localgov

[Matt Dodd @MattDoddLGA]

Fantastic to be back in Harrogate for a few days for all things local government #LGAConf24 and far too much tea and coffee.

[Local Government Association (LGA) @LGAcomms]

Our survey of council chief executives in England reveals that 1 in 4 councils are likely to have to apply for emergency government bailout agreements to stave off bankruptcy in the next two financial years.

Great afternoon visiting the roots and reflections exhibition @warringtonmus by @tramosekongoart. Brilliant contributions from all of the kids, with our two very proud of their pictures of Viv Anderson and Katarina Johnson-Thompson being on display in a proper art gallery.

[Matt Dodd @MattDoddLGA]

Huge congratulations to @KatyCDodd a massive achievement! All of us are very proud.

Great day out in Prescott for the serious nonsense festival. Lovely atmosphere, fun shows for the kids, and brilliant volunteers to help it all along.
