A very late sign but an important point about how rash appears differently in skin of colour. Traditional public health messages and dermatology teaching in general favours Caucasian presentation but anyone can be affected.

Many thanks to the excellent guard on the delayed 19.30 from Leeds to york - has kept us well informed about the delay and also advised those who were trying to catch the next train to Sheffield! Hope he isn’t too late home himself! @northernassist

@WHSmith Thank you - she is clearly an excellent staff member, and I hope that her next shift is a better one.

@WHSmith sad to see staff member in tears at Doncaster station after interaction with group of youths. Wished I could have given her a hug. Hope she will be receiving some support.

@bedsidepodcast @CorsoEllena Caught up with episodes 3-5 last night, having listened to Winter last year some time. Breathtaking. What a truly wonderful series. Can’t wait to finish it off!

[Shekhar Biyani @shekharbiyani]

Insightful talk by @LizStonell on the importance of understanding neurodiversity in the healthcare environment at the @UrologyBootCamp. A vital conversation on how we can better support neurodiverse colleagues and patients alike. @vishhanchanale Mamoun @LeedsHospitals 🙏🏼

[Liz Stonell (she/her) @LizStonell]

@DrLucyHenshall @ralanshirley @rcgp @RCGPAC Definitely worth a watch when we do have access - was incredibly powerful and moving.

GP registrars offered neurodiversity screening to help them succeed, conference hears https://t.co/MeV6XbHMzd

[Liz Stonell (she/her) @LizStonell]

@DrLucyHenshall Thank you! At least I’ve plenty to think about!

[Liz Stonell (she/her) @LizStonell]

It has been an amazing conference #RCGPAC24. So much to reflect on and digest - starting with the humble carrot! But the train journeys have brought back memories from last year! 🤦‍♀️
