Significant moment at #PMQs today: @MattBishopMP, on behalf of his constituent Richard, calls on the Govt to take urgent action on brain tumours, the biggest cancer killer of children & adults under 40.

Let's make this a priority.

Working with talented young @glamcricket and @cricketwales batsman Nabeel Hussain.

We worked on delaying the backswing and taking the hands and bat back straighter and closer to the body to help him present a full bat face.

A wonderful day celebrating PhD graduation at @cardiffuni. I am now a proud double alumni of @cardiffuni. Thank you @theWCRC, @CUBRICcardiff and @VelindreCC for supporting my research. This was only possible with the support of an amazing supervisor team @JohnStaffurth @jamspowell and Richard Wise. @DrMickButton, @jamspowell and Jillian Maclean, i am in debt to you for holding the fort during write up. Thank you @dramirh01 and my 2 children for your great support through out. Last but not least, I can’t express my gratitude enough to all the patients who volunteered to take part in the study.

And very much seeing the difference this is making in clinic already. Patients getting into treatment faster + also accessing a wider range of treatments.
Thank you to everyone who has been part of this @Velindre @VelindreCC @MM_Oncologist @Sam_J_Cox @nsiqbal

If you read anything today please read this. This is a tragic story of an amazing man. If you can donate and help Craig hit the £million mark for Sunday. It would be incredible. Thank you❤️🙏

[Ramsey Sabit @ramsey_sabit]

Seriously ⁦@BBCWales⁩ ???? You run this story today but make no mention of the junior doctor strikes and the knock on effects it will have ? We will just about get away with covering this week , but the pre-Easter March strikes - forget it !!! 🙈 https://t.co/lHbLcsj94k
