I hope folks enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it.

"Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it’s worth."

Still though, wear sunscreen folks.

Thinking about #SASweek25 & the showcasing of the Specialist role

It’s vital to step away from the ‘middle grade’ mentality & terminology that holds #NHS trusts back from using this role to its full potential

We need education & culture change #SASsix t.co/vg1wKsWlEE
