I'm passionate about ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and use it in my life and work; because sometimes thinking doesn't help and you just need to ACT.

The NHS has cared for us for 69 years. Under the Tories it’s in crisis. It's time we cared for the NHS. #NHSBirthday https://t.co/k4BFgFtPNa

I wonder if University fees have put pressure on students to achieve and taken the fun & passion out of learning? Some harrowing images. https://t.co/RCPvm1C4FI
