Finally got to enjoy the XCO @cyclingontnt this season with the calm energy & expert commentary from Annie & Oli. The absence of the usual crew was an improvement for me, though Josh would sit nicely too.Perhaps 2026 will be an improved line up & make the pain of £31/mnth easier?

Q1 I manage a specialist rheumatology physio and absolutely support specialist role for long term management and supporting the initial assessment. General MSK is not equipped to manage flare up neither in exposure nor operational design in our services #physiotalk

Tomorrow we strike.I appreciate not everyone can, & I appreciate not everyone agrees with the action, but for me this is about far more than what turns up in my bank account every month.The NHS cannot go on like this; perhaps that is what our Government is aiming for #SaveOurNHS
'We're in a crisis situation, not only in terms of the physiotherapy workforce, not only in the service that's being delivered to patients, but in terms of the whole NHS.' @KMiddletonCSP's message as NHS physio staff prepare to take strike action. #CSP4FairPay

Here are current turnout figures in NHS pay consultation in England/Wales. England just over 30%, Wales just over 40% ( 👏) both still behind Scotland levels at similar halfway point. Improving but still need to hear from a lot more members. 2 weeks to go - have your say @thecsp
NHS Pay - Our turnouts in England & Wales are on the up - but can go higher before September 9 A high response rate in Scotland helped CSP Council take decisive action. We need similar for 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿&🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Check your emails. Vote. Contact us for troubleshooting: ow.ly/pwbZ50KqIBu
