A bit of fun before the Euro 2024 finals on Sunday. Let’s cheer on the Three Lions by having lots of us mini-lions (cats) roaring our support. Just post a photo or video of your cat making a facial expression that looks like a roar. Add your cat’s name & the hashtag #CatsRoarForEngland. Come on England!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 #EURO2024 #ThreeLions

Insight led care - love what the analyst network are demonstrating here.
What a brilliant analyst network meeting today? 150 participants 😁 we heard about brilliant work @UHMBT @aaroncumminsNHS to develop a metric library, processes and procedures to support ward to board reporting - data driven decisions which lead to insight led care 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Okay. I’m excited by this one. We are recruiting for a trainee in policy and research here @TheKingsFund. Someone who is working in health and care on the front line but has thought - I want to shift my career to policy and research but I don’t know how.
