Don’t think I’ve got an award since my Level 3 Duckling Award in swimming 15 years ago, but honoured to be recognised alongside some incredible people @LingsBar 😁😁
Top 5 saddest moments of my life, watching The Inbetweeners and was appalled at this narrow frame being far too small for this man, what has become of me, I used to be cool I swear 😔 Hope you’re all having an equally thrilling evening xox
A thread of our series;
Being Black in Physiotherapy by @CrouchPhysio & myself.
This is a 3-part series highlighting the issues in Physiotherapy & offering solutions on how our profession can improve
Initially released this on Instagram but decided to bring it to Twitter too!
Lack of diversity in Physiotherapy is a continuing problem in the profession. Here are a set of infographics that I made suggesting ways that we could start to change. (A thread-twitter only lets me post 4 pics at a time).
'Saying nothing might equate to ‘not being racist’ but it is not enough – I have to be anti-racist. And so does the CSP.'
CSP chief executive @KMiddletonCSP writes to members about Black Lives Matter. https://t.co/YdM1FA6JgQ
⬇️⬇️⬇️ great rotational post for anyone interested in a more diverse range of physio disciplines whilst still maintaining your core skills (no they aren’t paying me to say this but I wish they were!)
Looking for your first physiotherapy rotational post or a different community experience @NottsHealthcare. https://t.co/LpfQVWiVtN Just a few days remaining.... Brilliant teams and dedicated colleagues. Get in touch @avington_suzann
Though this statement is appreciated, I hope @thecsp put ACTIONS behind their words. Systematic racism is an issue that greatly affects Physiotherapy & needs change to support current and aspiring physiotherapists to make them feel welcome & a normal part of the profession.
Start by following the great @Manni_O and @gitaramdharry and questioning your trust, universities and governing bodies on their lack of diversity ✌🏻 (4/4)
Seeing a lot of discussion on here following the recent events in the US has got me thinking about diversity and the struggle BAME physio’s and other healthcare professionals face, the ignorance of myself and others to this issue is ridiculous (1/4)
Nobody needs my opinion on this tbh, but if you are white, the least you can do is follow BAME voices in your chosen disciple, engage with them, I am still very uneducated but that is no longer an excuse, we can educate ourselves. (3/4)
We stand in solidarity with our BAME members and colleagues against the evil of racism that infects societies across the world - including here in the UK.

First day of redeployment @LingsBar today, apart from my first patient putting themselves on the floor and realising as I tried to read back my illegible scrawl that I haven’t hand written notes in over 1yr, I’ve had worse first days!
Lot of negativity at the minute but recently displayed some coronavirus symptoms, got tested within 24 hours and had my results the next day, great service from @nottmhospitals and @NottsHealthcare, now to rest! #Covid19UK
