Happy to share that I am now #CIPRQualified.

I recently completed the @CIPR_Global Professional PR Certificate, studying with @pracademy.

An excellent course that is highly applicable to day-to-day work and a learning platform that's simple and fun to use.

Mrs Ayling fell at home and landed on her face.

Anyone can have a fall, but older people are more vulnerable and likely to fall. Around 1 in 3 adults over 65 will have at least one fall a year.
