Out today, more work from @LYNCStudy Effectiveness and impact of networked communication interventions in young people with mental health conditions: A rapid review @paulsutcliffewe journals.sagepub.com/doi/ful…
I am supporting @cftrust, the people I know and love living with and working with #cf in hoping for a successful #parliament #debate on Monday 19th March calling for #OrkambiNow petition.parliament.uk/petit… xitter.cf/oli_rayner/status/9747… – at Chadlington, England
