Once again the @WHO ignores the 7th leading cause of death in the world -#dementia - when talking risk factors. So sad, so narrow minded, perhaps also a tad ageist? So many countries I have been to where dementia is left out of risk factors campaigns. This is where it all starts

Brilliant to wake up this morning to @NSPCC calling for UK Govt to #Invest2EndAbuse - amending the statutory duty proposed in the #domesticabusebill to include *all* victims, children as well as adults, services in the community where vast majority access them

By the time they start school, at least one child in every classroom will have lived with domestic abuse since they were born & these early experiences can impact their future. Every child deserves the best start in life 5bigquestions.org.uk/ 👈join the conversation

‘Homeless people are the people that you step over coming out of the opera house.' These were the words of a politician which, in 2000, spurred residents at @passagecharity and Matt Peacock MBE to cast homeless people in an opera and celebrate their achievements. #RPSAwards

Georgia tells us about being in the car next to her mum when her mum’s partner shot and killed her at point blank range. ‘I suffer from PTSD & anxiety. I will never have a normal teenage life’ The COURAGE of this girl, shaking but standing up to honour her mother. #sutda19

Standing room only at Wales’ first SURVIVOR LED stand up to domestic abuse conference! We are hundreds-strong. Organised by a woman I’m proud to know, who’s been thru the worst imaginable hell, & emerged an incredible fighter for women. Thank you @Dontlookback198! #SUTDA #sutda19
