“It will ensure mental health is given the same attention and focus as physical health."🔥🔥🔥 We're excited by how prominent mental health was in today's #KingsSpeech. This is just the start. We'll keep pushing to make sure the new UK government delivers on these promises💪

As you watch the Aurora this evening, it’s worth reflecting that you’re getting a rare direct glimpse of the power of Nature. Those charged particles causing the atmosphere to glow came from a sunspot complex 17 times the diameter of Earth and traveled across 90 million miles at a million miles an hour. Without our magnetic field to protect us, our atmosphere would have been lost to space long ago. Those colours in the sky are Nature reminding us that we’re very lucky to be here amidst the violence. And perhaps therefore also reminding us not to shite it all up :-)

My tendency to say “I can do that” overshadows the more important questions of “should I do that?” or “do I have the time and mental energy to do that?”

I had genuinely never seen a child with measles in my paediatrics career until 2 weeks ago and I’ve seen multiple every day since. Not a single one in a child who had their MMR (even just first dose if not old enough for their preschool booster yet). Vaccinate your children!
