Regular exercise is one of the best ways I personally manage my mental health. Netball matches give me a chance to get away from life's stressors, spend some time with my pals, and work for that endorphin hit 👊🏀❤️‍🔥
It was a pleasure to work with @GranadaReports on this one

Big staff survey improvement for Greater Manchester Mental Health Trust @GMMH_NHS - following their very low point the previous yr.

Some hope there for a trust that's been in major difficulty. Well done to the interim/new leadership team there

The single occupancy rooms will improve care, leading to shorter lengths of stay for mental health patients across the community.
