As a strong supporter of public service broadcasting, I want to be able to defend the BBC. But the decision to take @GaryLineker off air is indefensible. It is undermining free speech in the face of political pressure - & it does always seem to be rightwing pressure it caves to

This month we @AlzscotCPP want to understand the contribution of nursing to dementia care. Nurses work in many specialities in partnership with people with dementia and their families.
What do you do? Practice, research or policy? @WeNurses @WeMHNurses @AlzScotDNC @sdrc_research

"Present complex ideas with clarity. A lot of research, particularly when presented at conferences, can be difficult to understand by those from different disciplines." @MJSmith0611
Clearly sharing science can ensure the brilliance is appreciated!

"#Flexibility within #researchDesigns, tailoring methods to suit individual strengths and needs, can enable the active involvement of people who may otherwise not be considered able to contribute" @angelagregory28
Is your research flexible?

#AccessibilityIsFlexibility top tip from @annawaugh1:
“When focusing on accessibility, #planning is the strength I rely on💪🏼. Planning within a supporting framework means I construct activities with the aim of releasing everyone to be #creative"📝🤔❤️.

"#Dementia is a disease that can impact anyone. I am a carer myself and want to find as many ways as I can to help my Dad, and other families like ours, to live the best life they can with dementia."

What is the best advice you've received? 🤔
@MollahMainuddin was advised to develop a realistic plan for his studies, with small step-by-step progress milestones.
How important is planning to your studies or research?

.@MollahMainuddin explains more about why his #DementiaResearchMatters:
"#DementiaCare policy and workforce planning are yet to be included or prioritised in #Bangladesh's national healthcare plans. Learning from #Scotland will expediate improvements."
#SummerSeries
Moin retweeted
"In #Bangladesh, there is limited social awareness about #dementia. People living with dementia often go undiagnosed. Accessing appropriate healthcare and social support for people with dementia is difficult, so this #DementiaResearchMatters"
