@sarajcox Student Union, Tequila(s); assume fell over and couldn't recover vertical position. Woke as the lights came on with my hair stuck to the floor. 2:1 BTW. Fiona, was in Belfast.

@VictoriaCoren small (big) favour... my mum, Teresa turns 70 in Sept. Have concocted the plan to get 70 birthday messages for her from friends etc. Would love to have the odd surprise in the pot. DMs open if you could write something?? Big only connect fans, but we suck at it!

[Physio F Talbot @PhysioTalbot]

@richardosman any chance I could send you a DM please? My mum is turning 70 in September and I'm trying to find her the perfect gift... x

First concert for these 2- an incredible night with @Pink which I'm not sure can be topped...

Plus, I'm def never putting them on my shoulders again, & we got back to the hotel in only 35 minutes, so all I've done tonight is give them unrealistic expectations for the future!

This is my kind of humour!

Any other #DogsofTwittter like a bit of apple bobbing??

[Physio F Talbot @PhysioTalbot]

@HumberstoneEmma Emma, I'm so sorry. Dogs are sources of the greatest joy and the greatest heartache 💔

[Physio F Talbot @PhysioTalbot]

I recognise I'm in an echo chamber on Twitter, but I'm delighted that I'm in it with all the best people 👑

[Physio F Talbot @PhysioTalbot]

Cool. Awesome. No really, I'm flipping delighted. Thanks so much for the great news. You guys are the best 👍

The team @WessexRehabSDH works hard to provide an individualised approach for each of our unique patients, helping them find a way forward on often hugely complex recovery journeys.

This sort of feedback makes all that effort worthwhile.

[Salisbury Hospital @SalisburyNHS]

This #ThankyouThursday we're 'singing the praises' of our @WessexRehabSDH Team's Upper Limb Service and their 'epic' skills💙

#CSP4FairPay

Pay doesn't keep up with inflation➡️people leave 4 non-nhs jobs➡️ less staff➡️lower quality rehab➡️patients suffer➡️moral injury to staff➡️more staff leave➡️unsafe staffing levels➡️people die

We're not on strike for our benefit

We're on strike for our patients

[Jo @Jo_Physio1]

We are struggling to recruit & retain staff in the NHS.

Pay is one issue. Conditions are another.

Not providing adequate care is distressing to staff and patients.

We can’t care if you don’t.

And that’s why today we went on strike. #csp4fairpay

[Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) @thecsp]

'Without physiotherapy lots of people just can’t go home.'

NHS physios describe the extreme pressures and unsustainable conditions they face daily and why they have chosen to take a stand.

Proud to be a Physiotherapist today and every day! Our patients deserve more than we are able to give! This is why we Strike #CSP4FairPay @MedSurg_SDH

[Physio F Talbot @PhysioTalbot]

Turned into a bit of a march around the biscuit tin(s) @SalisburyNHS

Physios are striking today because patients are suffering every day from a lack of staffing & basic services. We all want to provide better care but we need more staff.

Fair pay is a necessity to save the NHS

[Jenna Wippell @wippell_jenna]

Making a stand for our NHS! Better staffing equals better care for our patients #CSP4FairPay #bettercareforpatients #csp

[Emma Humberstone @HumberstoneEmma]

Proud to stand with my #csp #NHS colleagues. For me, this is about so much more than pay... the NHS depends on it's highly motivated, highly skilled staff at all grades. Recruitment & retention depends on good T&Cs - return to the negotiations @SteveBarclay

[Physio F Talbot @PhysioTalbot]

Squats!

No better way to keep warm on the picket line. Spirits are high, the beeps are plentiful and the biscuits are expected any time now.

Not worried that some of the placard slogans are physio-niche, because the NHS is for everyone, and our strike is for the future of the NHS.
