@DuncanWChisholm @LiveToYourLR Great to hear the music from the three of you and your responses to the questions this evening! Magical…

[Alison Petch @icyprof]

@CalSleeper Many thanks for your rapid response.

[Sam Smith 🕷 @samcchange]

It couldn't be clearer what the issue is. Thank you, @r_cackett @ccpscotland

As to solutions, well, we are all ears 👂

Anyone..?

My letter in the Times today about the apparent failure of this Govt to date to appreciate the interdependence of social care & #NHS & factor it into its policies.

@IanMWelsh Sustaining social care must be of the highest priority - it must not be a political football @_KateForbes

[Alison Petch @icyprof]

Great bunch of young people on the @CalSleeper tonight from Inverness! What a great idea for a school trip.

[C-Change Scotland @cchangescotland]

In light of the recent damaging words of @KemiBadenoch against people with autism and mental health issues, C-Change has released a powerful statement titled, 'We Are Better Than This.'

🗣️ Let's stand together for inclusion, compassion, and understanding.

@cchangescotland Another Annual Report that shows how it can be done 👏

[Alison Petch @icyprof]

Totally agree!

@EleanorJThom @UllapoolBookFes Your session was fascinating and I am really looking forward to reading Connective Tissue - a phenomenal amount of work

[Alison Petch @icyprof]

Indeed; why is it so difficult for people to prioritise the support at home that people need and want

[Richard Humphries 💚 @RichardnotatKF]

A seriously deficient plan for many reasons. Most people stuck in hospital don’t need a care home place & the NHS can’t afford to buy them. ⁦@UKLabour⁩ need to take better advice & soon. https://t.co/IBilNm3pqq

[Alison Petch @icyprof]

On the @CalSleeper to my last @DunhillMedical Board meeting and the Cairngorms are beautiful in the evening sun

[Alison Petch @icyprof]

Brilliant response to @NicolaSturgeon at @CharlestonTrust Festival - and she’s on again with @valmcdermid later. If only all politicians…

[Vivensa Foundation @VivensaF]

Great to hear @NIHRresearch and @christopherwhitty, CMO calling for research funders to take the lead on changing culture in ageing-related research today. @DunhillMedical made this commitment 5 years ago and welcomes fellow travellers to DMT Academy and UKARFF.
