This is growing at a rate I can hardly believe. Thank you, everyone who has shared it. Now >186,000 views on @TEDTalks home page. Welcome, many new followers. Dying. It's going to happen. We can talk about it, prepare for it, accompany it &, in time, be accompanied.
Astonishing. Since @TEDTalks posted my talk about 'What Happens As We Die?' to their home page yesterday, it's already clocked up 15k views. People DO want better information - so please pass it on. I'm delighted that TED has chosen to spread this idea. ted.com/talks/kathryn_mannix…

It is such a clear finding - babies are dying in the UK due to poverty, not health issues - simple, and heartbreaking. Poor housing, lack of heating, lack of access to suitable baby equipment such as safe cribs - the vast majority of these deaths are PREVENTABLE.
An important report on sudden and unexpected child deaths in England. A significantly larger proportion of unexplained deaths were of infants living in the most deprived neighbourhoods (42%) than those in the least deprived neighbourhoods (8%): hqip.org.uk/wp-content/uploa…

I remember an excellent module on sw and housing when I trained. In early career did lots of joint work with housing. Now it seems that sw can do little with housing. The state of our public services is a death making scandal. This is social murder. theguardian.com/uk-news/2022…

Highest infant mortality rate in UK - so genuinely what else do the politicians need to hear to get to work - this on top of knowing that our health service is on its knees , social care / services is broken , education Inadequate for children specifically with additional needs
There was a stark warning today from a Belfast doctor from the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health that children in Northern Ireland will die because their parents aren't able to put on the heat in their homes this winter. Marie-Louise Connolly reports.

Tragic news The latest @CornwallInsight prediction, based on Ofgem's new methodology, is an 81% price cap rise in Oct (taking typical bill to £3,582/yr) and a further 19% in Jan (so £4,266/yr) Action & planning is needed now. The zombie govt needs wake up sooner than 5 Sept...
