We're at the #NIFrailtyConference and enjoying the presentations from our community partners @meaapni and @PartnershipSw SWAP Chair Marj Aitken giving a great insight into how they prevent frailty as older ppl supporting each other.
It's time for our next #FacesOfSET, Charge Porter Jimmy Chapman 🙌

Jimmy is a true SET stalwart, he is sure to make you laugh! #LegendsUnveiled ❤️
