@suzysopenheart @BangorUni That's great news Suzy, such a great opportunity and I'm sure she will be absolutely amazing x

@KaindeManji @agescotland Me too, sounds like a plan

[Amanda McCarren @amanda_mccarren]

@AnnaGaughan3 Thank you, I am really enjoying it so far. Still can't quite believe I have the opportunity to work in policy that will directly affect James. I saw that you also have a new role - congratulations!

Mixed emotions as I head into my final day with tide after 4 humbling years working with the most amazing carers and colleagues to turn up the volume so voices are heard and change is made. Looking forward now to my new challenge ahead

I support Tide because they were there for me when I needed a friend. Can you spare the cost of a coffee to make sure they continue to be there for Carer’s https://t.co/28zvS0eJi4
