Staff fatigue is a patient safety risk—not just a wellbeing issue. The latest HSSIB report urges urgent action: better rest, safer rotas, cultural change. Safe staffing isn’t optional. It’s essential. Read more: www.hssib.org.uk/patient-safe... #PatientSafety #SafeStaffing

@adamthompsonmp.bsky.social Labour must urgently refocus: boost tax income from corporates and billionaires, not squeeze the vulnerable. Fairness fuels prosperity. History won’t be kind to a party that punishes those it vowed to protect. @lizkendallmp.bsky.social @teamlabouruk.bsky.social

Labour Education Secretary @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social says a strike by teachers would be 'indefensible' I say a real terms pay cut from Labour, following years of Tory austerity is indefensible. I fully support teachers fighting for pay Repost if you agree!

Cutting PIP doesn't make people less disabled. It simply makes them poorer and more vulnerable.

The case was brought to prevent trans women taking up places reserved for women on public boards (NB as of 2020 no trans woman had taken such a place). Good take here on what the judgement does and doesn’t mean. 💜 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Surreal interview with the UK’s EHRC’s Baroness Kishwer Falkner, who thinks she meets “the highest standards of public service,” on BBC Radio 4’s Today. Sets out her journey in terms of gender-critical views. The EHRC has significantly eroded trans rights. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

Not just in soil, but in your life, relationships and mindset. A small act—a conversation, a quiet intention—can be the start of something meaningful. Growth doesn’t demand perfection, just consistency and care. Whether it’s nature or nurture, the act of planting is a hopeful one. #TherapistSky

To my trans and non-binary friends: You are seen, valued, and supported. In the face of decisions that may feel exclusionary, know that many stand with you, advocating for a society where everyone's identity is respected and protected.

There’s always something new to see—if we slow down long enough to look. There’s a beautiful juxtaposition here, blending the past with the present. It mirrors how we evolve too—bringing forward our experience while staying open to new perspectives and possibilities. #TherapistSky #NurseSky

Today’s #ActiveApril action: stretch, move gently, and take a mindful moment. Yoga, tai chi, or just a breath while reaching for the sky — it all counts. No need for expertise or a teacher. If it feels good, great. If not, that’s okay too. Be kind to yourself today. #TherapistSky #NurseSky

This is unsafe, unethical, and abandons young people. Denying access to gender-affirming care through policy doesn’t protect—it pushes young people towards unsafe alternatives. Healthcare should be based on evidence and compassion, not politics. #TransHealth #LGBTQ+ #NHS

Good morning. On day 3 of 4 days’ classroom training—movement matters more than ever. Starting and ending the day with a walk, breaks between sessions, and a swim tonight to stretch and reflect. Small, intentional movement keeps mind and body in balance. #NurseSky #TherapistSky

Today’s @actionhappiness.bsky.social started early in the gym. A study day today—immersed in group process, held by my psychotherapy peers. Breaks for movement and reflection are built in. I’ll end the day with a long walk. Less screen time, more presence. #TherapistSky #NurseSky #SelfCare

Even on the hardest days, a shared laugh can lift the weight we carry in care. It soothes the nervous system, reconnects us, and reminds us we’re human too. Let’s keep finding light in each other. #NurseSky #TherapistSky @actionhappiness.bsky.social #CompassionateCare #Wellbeing

Up early for a swim, walking to the station for a day in London with colleagues. I’m learning to work with my natural rhythm—movement, light, rest. A little more balance. Small shifts, gently repeated. Today’s action from @actionhappiness.bsky.social really resonates. #NurseSky #TherapistSky

In the coming months, the government will share it's plan to fix the NHS, but there's currently no plan for social care. We found that satisfaction with social care is at a record low of just 13%. Read more about the #BritishSocialAttitudes survey: buff.ly/ZgA3hCG

There’s no sustainable NHS workforce plan without a coherent education policy to underpin it. The two are interdependent—and right now, both are under pressure. We cannot fix the leaking pipeline without fixing the broken pathway that leads into it. #NurseSky

Today’s @actionhappiness.bsky.social: after a morning swim, I feel relaxed, calm, and quietly happy. The blue sky, gentle sunshine, and early stillness. Starting the day by checking in with my body and mind. How are you feeling today? #Presence #Mindfulness #Wellbeing #TherapistSky #NurseSky

@actionhappiness.bsky.social Turn a regular activity into a playful game today! A simple shift in mindset can lift our mood, spark connection, and bring lightness to the everyday. Play isn’t just for kids — it’s a powerful tool for joy and wellbeing. #NurseSky #TherapistSky #Wellbeing

Measles deaths in UK infants are a tragic reminder of the harm caused by falling vaccine uptake and misinformation. In a country with universal healthcare, this is preventable. Nurses play a vital role in restoring trust, tackling disinformation, and protecting #PublicHealth. #NurseSky

Today’s @actionhappiness.bsky.social invites us to care for ourselves with food and water. It’s not about rules or guilt — just small, kind choices that help us feel good. No judgement, no perfection. Just doing our best, with compassion for ourselves and others. #NurseSky #TherapistSky

Started #ActiveApril with a quiet morning swim. Today’s prompt: “Commit to being more active.” For me, movement is self-care — a way to reconnect, reset, and be present in my body. Grateful for the gentle start. #NurseSky #TherapistSky @actionhappiness.bsky.social #SelfCareThroughMovement

Monday morning and the last day of #MindfulMarch. Take a moment to pause, breathe, and notice the simple things—a warm drink, fresh air, birdsong, green appearing on the trees. Joy lives in the ordinary. Let’s carry this mindful presence into the months ahead. #NurseSky #TherapistSky

Welfare cuts are a political choice. 685,500 Britons (1%) have wealth of £2.8trn. 48m (70%) have £2.4trn. Richest four have more wealth than 20m people combined. Govt could have taxed the rich, chose to cut benefits of the disabled/poor. Not acceptable. Tell your MP to oppose the cuts.
