@HannahScaife1 @tanya_tavi @franlc @GodfredBoahen2 @claudiamegele @bostonian_PSW @TendyMuro @LeireAgirre4 Really enjoyed yesterday's session thank you. Could listen to you all all day. Loving the book too ♥️
@Mwharvey So proud of you Chief! You will be amazing ❤️
#SWA22. Fantastic night so far celebrating social work
Wow! So brave ❤️
I’m running out of words to describe my astonishment. Just over 3 weeks after #MahsaAmini’s death, women are defiantly walking on the streets of #Tehran, with no hijab…while cars are honking in their supports. Mahsa couldn’t have imagined how she changed life for many Iranians.
Community led support in action has meant I’ve survived this week when mum and dad in crisis. I’ve brought together Neighbours, friends , family all rallying round to support me and my mum and dad. Real friends , real connections and a great care agency. Forever grateful ❤️
@AnnaSeverwright So sorry to hear this Anna, i hope you find someone reliable soon ❤️
Fabulous performance at Whitby Abbey and i see you’ve been at Tilbury Fort too with another play, sorry I missed this @thurrockcouncil @TWTtheatre

Three years ago, Beth was locked in a seclusion cell. Clinicians then were recommending she went to Rampton Today we went out shopping together, then she cooked me an amazing chicken curry The right care, in the right environment, by amazing staff with humanity & right support.
@RobMitch92 @CathGormally Well done, they are lucky to have you 😀
This is a legacy indeed. Mainly down to @Mwharvey when we shared the CSW role. He was determined to set up the right framework, and there were a lot of doubters as to whether it would get funded. You did it Mark. Congratulations!
@Mwharvey What a day! The launch of the SC WRES website! See, look what you started! Now, that's a legacy! #congratulations @franlc @triciaapc @skillsforcare @jeremyhuntdiary

Funny how when you become a carer to your parents everything you learnt as a professional goes out the window! We have a long way to go keeping it real!! I’ve always admired what family carers do. im now in absolute awe of them. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
@triciaapc @BSTHydePark @PerformInterp @Adele Happy Birthday Tricia xx
