It was an amazing night at the Worcestershire Health and Care Awards, I was so surprised and buzzing for hours. So proud to receive one award, but 2 was the ultimate shock.

Last night, we had the honour to be awarded a winner of the health and social care awards for the category of mental health. Then, totally unexpectedally, we received the overall award of the night for outstanding contribution to health and care award. #WorcestershireHour

Exactly what I have been saying, I know some need it, but if you give it to everyone instead of having a cut off, then the wrong people get it. Trouble is many pensioners who can qualify for pension credit etc don't apply. Don't blame #Starmer

Retweet if you Agree?

[Gaynor Pritchard @GPritchard1]

I completely agree with so many pensioners having good income if they are not they can get pension credit.

[Gaynor Pritchard @GPritchard1]

@tykestakeonit It's the threshold for the #PensionCredit and other benefits is the issue if everyone got the fuel allowance it would be going to the rich who don't need it. you can't have a blanket allowance for everyone like they used to f6child benifit

[Gaynor Pritchard @GPritchard1]

If the Gov didn't have a cut-off and means test the #WinterFuelPayment everyone would be getting it. Plenty of rich pensioners and other people received payment but don't need it. What is needed is raising the #PensionCredit threshold it's too much focus on the wrong thing

I'm getting so stressed, I have a black tie awards evening on the 19th. I ordered loads of dresses, none fit properly, or don't suit. I can't afford much or afford to get them altered. The last dress I had altered cost £30 and wasn't done right. I can't wear it. #help

[Behind The Smile @BehindTheSmil17]

Could you volunteer for us? Would you be interested in helping lead a small men's only #peersupport group? Or Could you help with a parents group, whose children (of any age) has #mentalillness ? Or an 18-35 group? Or a Women's only group? Some will be in the daytime or evening.

Meat is butchered from animals from the farm and nearby farms, all grass fed beef. Cows, pigs, you can see from the shop, eggs from the chickens you can see. #Buylocal #Longford #WorcestershireHour #GloucestershireHour

@itv we love watching #Vera but VERY UPSET. They are discussing a #suicide but she says he didn't "#COMMIT #SUICIDE " Please think of your use of language. Suicide stopped being a crime in 1961. That is where the word in this context comes from. I am very annoyed.

[Gaynor Pritchard @GPritchard1]

@tgalloway72 These comments has enraged me, Im pleased I only saw these few if this is a flavour of what the comments are like. They should be reported for some sort of hate speech, I wish. This has frustrated me.

[Gaynor Pritchard @GPritchard1]

with all the other tasks. We are all volunteers, no-one gets paid, however we only have a few volunteers, more is always needed.
I was slower that expected due to not doing much since Zac died. There is still time to donate.

[Gaynor Pritchard @GPritchard1]

Thank so much for all your donations, I'm so grateful, all our funds go straight into the charity. The only funds we raise are through fundraising or grants. Due to the time it takes to complete these application forms I don't have time to do these to an adequate level along
