Our Sean shares something of his #Parkinsons journey over recent years for @BBCRadioWales
“.. a searingly honest insight into a life that's been turned upside down since his diagnosis”
We hope it’s an encouragement 👇🏻

Thank you @crisis_uk and each signatory for taking this stand - you will have the support of many grass roots organisations, charities, care practitioners & community groups similarly horrified by @SuellaBraverman and this government’s draconian intentions towards the vulnerable
How @Shelter respond to @SuellaBraverman below is something we would whole heartedly endorse - these gov policies & attitudes do nothing but add trauma to people who are already living with multiple traumas. Woe to those in power who ignore the needs of the poor & vulnerable.
These findings resonate with our lived experience - we have seen this rise in destitution - we see the faces behind the figures, we see the imbalance of priorities from those who have the power to make an obscene profit or to see no one gets left behind. #DontIgnoreDestitution
Destitution is when people cannot afford to meet their most basic physical needs to stay warm, dry, clean and fed.
Our new report reveals a shameful rise in the number of people experiencing destitution in the UK.
Here are the key findings 🧵
