Not only is it the case that happy people are more willing to help others, but as I generally point out, helping others is the best way to help yourself, the best way to promote your own happiness. It is you, yourself, who will receive the benefit.

This demands to be read by anyone who commissions, regulates, inspects or provides support for learning disabled people. And @mencap_charity of course. https://t.co/G3Of0lOfgC

I hope that the many good people that work for @mencap_charity who are horrified at what is happening in the @TozerInquest feel brave enough to speak up about it. #silencekills

Let's not forget bullying tactics from local authorities along with social worker's! How are they allowed 2 get away with it 😣 https://t.co/OtQfzycPER

[Nascot Lawn Campaign @NascotCampaign]

We don’t tolerate bullies at school or in the workplace, but apparently it’s ok to be bullied by government employees who cannot do their jobs properly. #epicfail

@flo_warriors @SaveNHSNascot @HVCCG @hertscc We are also in limbo with reopening our respite! Closed Nov, due 2 admin errors we looking 2 wait til June it's absolutely disgusting!

Owen was supposed to stay tonight but it's shut due to no staff, he hasn't stayed since Feb, only has 1 more day 'guaranteed' then we are in limbo😔 @SaveNHSNascot @HVCCG @hertscc

[Nascot Lawn Campaign @NascotCampaign]

We were able to pose a question at the Watford Mayoral Hustings about the dire situation re health in our area & lack of changing places for the disabled. We again raised awareness of our ‘unbearable’ situation regarding #NascotLawn #SaveNascot @flo_warriors Thank you @BBC3CR

[Nascot Lawn Campaign @NascotCampaign]

@HVCCG Active service users who have CCHC that live in @ENHertsCCG have not received the response documents. This is utter #incompetence & embarrassing #sad #NHS @HertsNicolas @RipDoc @hertscc @Richard4Watford @NHSEngland @DHSCgovuk #NascotLawnHS @SteveBroach @DCPcampaign 🤦‍♀️

Ben loves going to music concerts.

But to do that, you have to scope out the venue beforehand. He needs changing facilities and if we’re lucky, the venue will have nice, close parking.
