Under the Conservatives, people are waiting longer than ever to see a GP

In 2023, 61 million people had to wait longer than two weeks for an appointment and almost 18 million had to wait more than four weeks

Please RT if you agree the Tories must go

@bhasnip @TheChiCentre @SPFT_NHS @celialesquerre @Research_SPFT It was so positive to see so much support for your initiative from your Trust. Collaboration is key because research and creativity pull in different directions. I think your team could break new ground

[Louise Combes @Louisecombes]

It was great to be with likeminded clinicians so used to working with trauma and so determined to get those who live with trauma included in research- thank you @bhasnip @SPFT_NHS

[Becky Hasnip @bhasnip]

@Louisecombes @SPFT_NHS @badthofficial What a fabulous & inspiring day. It was wonderful hearing about your work. Your determination was infectious & we are definitely left more driven to help increase the evidence of arts therapists @SPFT_NHS @Research_SPFT @celialesquerre

I am excited to be sharing 12 years research learning with @SPFT_NHS today. Thanks @bhasnip for the opportunity to share my successes & mistakes! @badthofficial

[Louise Combes @Louisecombes]

Thanks to @AttuneProject we know impact of invalidation. As we specialise in validating young people’s experience by staying with their spoken or embodied metaphors these guys are worth following for all DTS. Great to work with; great research @badthofficial @DramatherapySCT

[ATTUNE Research Project @AttuneProject]

🌟 This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek we advocate that emotions are valid, and it's time we start acknowledging them. #AttuneProject looks into creating #supportiveenvironments and #challengingnorms. It uncovers invalidation faced by youth in home, school, care and health sectors.

@BBCWomansHour whats going on? Every BBC outlet is moaning re 6 week election campaign. I saw this as an opportunity to get my teenagers engaged in both the election & BBC excellence at a time when my kids have some power. Please can you influence BBC for the future of democracy

[Louise Combes @Louisecombes]

@BBCRadio4 @BBCNews
please stop briefing your journalists to moan about 6 weeks of campaigning. THE ONLY time in 5 years that its worth listening to polticians;we voters have power. I am teaching my kids to engage and this is what we get! PLEASE - be excited!
