The @UN security council takes 10 weeks to draft a extremely poor & weak response to #Russia invasion of #Ukraine & does not include the words “war”, “conflict” or “invasion”. Truly demonstrates how useless the UN actually is… they did nothing for Afghanistan either..😔

[Pen Farthing @PenFarthing]

Yet again #Kabul and #Afghanistan is plunged into a circle of violence.. why would anyone attack schools? 🤯😔 Our thoughts are with our @Nowzad team & their families who have to live with this on a daily basis-Life out there is hard enough as it is. #nowzad #nowzadafghanistan

Please spare a RT for all the cleaners, porters, chefs, security staff, administrators and many other non-clinical staff who are keeping the NHS running today.

We could not be more grateful to everyone who makes our NHS what it is.

About 5 years ago I had a conversation that went along the lines of:

“But you love #Lego & you love #Photography! Why don’t you combine the 2?”

I said something along the lines of “don’t be silly no one would be bothered about that…”

20K later, wow. Thank you, humbled. 😅💯🚨

Thx @BuzzFeed! Often people say that they’re surprised they fell in love with a book about therapy, and I *always* say, “It’s not a book about therapy. It’s a book about BEING HUMAN.”

Staff & patients at the Robert Fergusson Unit (RFU) walked an incredible four million steps in less than a month to raise money for Ukraine!

Four million steps is how many it would take to walk the distance between the RFU & Kyiv 👇

Well done, team! 💙💛

‘Why do you like your job?’

“We went to a man today who wanted to end his life, because he couldn’t feed his dog, so I went round the corner and bought him dog food, because it’s the right thing so.”

You might hate us, but god do we try, always. #ThinBlueLine 💯🇬🇧🚨

The Conversatives would love you to believe that the shocking NHS waiting lists are all down to Covid

But the reality is that there was 4.4 million people on waiting lists in 2019 due to their underfunding of the NHS

Please RT if you think everyone should be clear about that

We had to share some feel good Bank Holiday feedback!

Here's how one of our participants felt after attending our recent What Next? course 👇

"I felt like I was in darkness, but now there are doors and the doors have handles and I can open them!"

Happy Friday everyone 🧡

One lad from Nottingham Uni had a birthday party. He was fined £10k and kicked out of Uni. His whole life ruined for a party and he's a kid. The PM does it and its let's all move on.

"I get so much from being a mentor. It’s so rewarding to support other people going through a difficult time and to think that I have helped in some way”

There's just a few spaces left for our Family Mentoring Training Weekend, on 13th-15th May ⏰

This #Ukrainian lady somehow survived the indiscriminate bombing of #irpin and she will not leave (she takes care of the local strays). She was overwhelmed when supplies arrived. It was such an emotional moment to meet her. There is so much to do here 😔 #nowzadukraine
