"Children's wellbeing sits between health, education, the environment. It straddles govt departments & their needs falls between the cracks."

That is why we call for a Cabinet led response to child health. @CamillaKingdon on the unequal impacts of climate change #ShiftTheDial 👇🏼

@mikeythenurse Thinking of you in supporting them into their chosen profession. It sounds as if they will make an important contribution to the health workforce. I hope they find allies and support to complete studies

Radical change is needed. And that means all governments need to commit to better support for the most vulnerable children in our community.

It also has a fairly clear fix. Ensure all our whānau have the resources they need to thrive. This is bread and butter politics at its best. We dont get more basic than making certain that every child has food on the table, a roof over their head, access to good health care

@keraoregan @dairnemorrigan Yes I support that Kera. I'm about 3 weeks out. Tired (but doesn't really qualify as severe fatigue like yours). Bedtime by 9p.m. Thankful yesterday was a public holiday as I spent most of it sleeping. Cough is persistent and clinically chest clear. Rest it out seems key
