Does @Finnair actually have a customer service...? I have tried for 4 days & the bot tells me there's no room in the queue. 🤯
Today I've gone a little mad (started trying to get hold of them at 9.20)
Just want to add a middle name on my account so I can transfer @AviosHelp🫠

Caring isn’t just my family's story, it is the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love.
Sharing our story hasn't been easy, but it's important. It's time to bring carers' experiences into the light.
@WeAreJunoCIC "We’ve made mistakes and we’re going to make more because we’re a group of humans trying to heal a broken system… but we have fire in our bellies."

@Georgia_Gould on a radical approach to co-production @CamdenCouncil. #StrongerThings
