Who else watched the absolutely lovely film Penguin Bloom this past weekend?
Many challenging moments but the #family stuck together with a bit of "glue" provided by a Magpie named Penguin who will certainly get the nod for #BAFTA best actor this year.

@RichardKSense spot on progress in terms of awareness and recognition but that has yet to deliver sufficient action
New report tell us what every carer is painfully aware of. The Care Act was a big step forward for carersโ rights but didnโt translate into better support for carers due to pressures on funding. The pandemic will only exacerbate this gap in support

If you have a moment, as most of the UK wakes up to a beautiful snowy morning, call on an elderly, disabled or shielding neighbour to make sure they're warm, safe and their walkways are salted.

The most profound statistic here is that ~36,000 people in #Scotland don't have access to #care services that would be beneficial to them.
This is a MASSIVE gap in care provision.
