Whenever the catalogue says there's an inscription on the front page, you usually expect it to be the owner's name. Sometimes it can be more unusual. Still, it's good to know where John Goodwin stood on the topic of pudding! - M.scam.2.upper shelf.1

The results are in! The findings from our 2022 survey really highlight the need for better support for families after neonatal care.

Thank you so much to the families who shared their experience to help raise awareness.

Exciting news from Norway today: the discovery of the oldest known rune stone!

Up to 2000 years old, it covered a grave of burnt bones. One of the inscriptions translates as idiberug - maybe the name of a woman called Idibera. Was this her grave? 🤯

Not everyone has heard of Peeps, and that's ok, but we'd love to reach more families & for HIE to be spoken about more. So may people say they have only #HeardofHIE once it's happened to them. Can you help spread the word by sharing? https://t.co/5vffzIv5ck
Thank you!

Like walking? Up for some volunteering or a challenge in 2023?

We're looking for people to help with #SlowWays - a big effort to create a national walking network.

You can help by going for a walk.

In this thread I'll explain how. Please read & share!

Me, 2:40pm: “I’ve got FOUR phone calls to make. Clear the decks. Ready some tea. This will certainly take the best part of the afternoon. Gah why is being an adult so HARD??”

Me, not 7 mins later: “huh… that was easy. I should remember for next time”

I won’t remember.

Really proud to have had a small hand in putting this together!

[@peeps-HIE @PeepsHie]

We know that some of our little HIEroes are starting nursery/school in a few weeks.
With the help of some of our parents, we've put together a downloadable / editable info sheet, to help share about what HIE means, and make it easier to talk about. https://t.co/S3pOoAauAK #HIE

@Nik_Gunn Commiserations. I find myself in the same boat. Inexplicable!

[Vicky Symons @vicky_janessa]

@MikeBintley As it happens, was just talking about you too. Jake’s gf saw you give a taster lecture on OE riddles. She says it was fab (naturally).

[Vicky Symons @vicky_janessa]

@MikeBintley Massive congrats Mike, you superstar!
