Loneliness is the story of far too many older people. It's crippling, can be life-limiting and it's time to change this. And we can. Together.

Few years ago, friend's daughter not sure what to do after Alevels, she wanted to work with people & make a difference - well obviously I told her about Occupational Therapy! She's now in 2nd year & loving it. Important to highlight the profession #OccupationalTherapy @theRCOT

I wanted to show every woman how to properly check her breasts. This is the first in a series of 4 videos. I’ll post them all as a thread on Friday. First we need to talk about looking in the mirror

How wonderful to hear Michael Rosen talk about returning to the stage and making children laugh again 😄 👏 And well done to the OT who talked to Michael about his goals, encouraged him, helped him believe that it was possible 💚 💙 #meaningfuloccupation #OT
Wow!

First day back at work after annual leave, felt all refreshed ... for about an hour!
Busier now than during earlier Covid stages. Deconditioned patients, more complex discharges and continuing staff shortages.
This is relentless and unsustainable #NHSreality #NHS

Laws exist to help keep our country clean but they are either flouted or not enforced on a massive scale - as recent scenes at beauty spots across the UK only served to prove.

Look what just arrived!
It's simply astonishing to see a real, actual book emerge from the long process of envisaging, writing, revising & daring to submit a manuscript.
Thanks to everyone who encouraged the writing of 'Listen.'
Publishing in September & can be pre-ordered now!
So excited to start looking forward to things. Just booked to see @northernballet perform 'Merlin' in September.

What a wonderful feeling just standing in the back garden where the last rays of sun still reach enjoying moment of quiet & calm, birds busy, buds growing, even bumble bee hummed past. All the turmoil of life momentarily put to one side #spring #Mindfulness #resilience #previvor
