Ahead of tonight's #ClapforCarers, we'd like to reiterate how dangerous sky lanterns can be - please do not light them tonight or any other night ❌ They're a fire hazard and pose a danger to people, homes, pets and wildlife 🔥

@LynnEatonWrites Lynn, I’m sorry to learn that your mother has died, and send my sympathy at this sad time.

There’s been a significant reduction in the number of patients presenting with acute retinal detachment each day since the lockdown. People may be permanently & avoidably losing vision. If you get a dark shadow in your vision plus or minus floaters, please seek urgent help Pls RT

When we emerge from this pandemic, every country must make the health and well-being of people and planet their paramount political concern. The same resolve that’s gone into fighting coronavirus must fight child malnutrition (5 million deaths a year) & suicide (1 million deaths)

@sarah_carmalt @magsnoodle Thinking of you all. Stay safe

Remember many mothers who made an extreme sacrifice in WW2 and certainly knew about food rationing!

@bbcquestiontime @chessmartinez I went through hell today with my Autistic son at the job centre. Hes claiming UC. The manger of the job centre had to look up if he could claim it. They had no for disabled people!! They treated him like crap & made me (mother,) cry

Pleased to see the subject of #sicklecell being highlighted on #callthemidwife. We can all help to raise awareness @SickleCellUK

@KMiddletonCSP So important for robust post graduate rotations in many specialities especially if FCP is going to be rolled out even further not just for MSK

@MelroseStewart1 Our parks provide beautiful open spaces for park runs, children’s play areas, dog walking and cycling etc. We must persuade city councils that they need more park rangers etc- money very well spent!

[Dr Melrose Stewart MBE @MelroseStewart1]

This is not much to ask for if government is looking to make long term savings on the cost of maintaining health and well-being of the population. Am I the only one flummoxed by the arguments against this investment?

Damning Inspection report into HMP Birmingham raises serious questions about privatisation of prison management and how Ministry of Justice has allowed things to get to this state https://t.co/YofnhFNuyS

@MelroseStewart1 Too true! A shame exams are at this time of the year, when some suffer from the high pollen count ,

I'm so excited to start work next Monday as Directorate Manager for Specialist Surgery at Dudley Group. The @NHSGradScheme has been an incredible experience - I'd recommend it to anyone who shares NHS values, loves people & wants to work hard. But for now... a holiday!
