Connecting with RCN Fellows and past Presidents at #RCNCongress2025 was a real highlight of the week.

#Inspiring evening of excellence, legacy, and service. #RCN25Award Dinner.
To witness the impact of nurses, midwives, and reps from across the UK each one a pillar in their community …was humbling and empowering. Congratulations to #BSol Global Majority NM & AHP Board member @kumbikariwo.bsky.social

Algar is part of Birmingham City of Sanctuary - a few weeks ago she was invited to a big shared Iftar. For people far away from loved ones and all that’s familiar, these moments of welcome, connection and community are truly a lifeline.

This is what City of Sanctuary is all about.

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been!

with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

Popular meme format, grandma labeled with "bluesky's public launch was one year ago today." Younger person helping her labeled with "sure grandma let's get you to bed."

Despite all of the challenges - legal and meteorological - we did it!

After 40 years of damaging deregulation, Greater Manchester has this morning successfully retaken control of the whole its bus network. 🙌🏻

The first Bee Network service pulls out of a snowy Altrincham Interchange early this morning.

While we’re banning books…

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

Be. Like. Finland.

What a year! Bluesky opened its doors just last February. Since then, we opened federation, launched video, rolled out trending topics, and a whole lot more.

Happy New Year, and here’s to a great year ahead! 🎉

This brother Malecule found his happy place and continued to do his thing on the F train, despite being trolled by a drunken fool.

Find your inner peace.
Don't let anyone stop you.

My vibe for 2025. 🙏💙

Hello hello hello 👋🏾

People will need to search for #skies #trees #chill to find me as that my new MO on BlueSkies 😂😂

Joking aside, will you be creating a Digital Health Nurse Midwifery starter pack?

I think @lincolnldnurse.com created one a week or two ago! Love this new @bsky.app concept 🫶🏾

I’m always humbled when I hear @olgaleachwalters77.bsky.social story!

Her perseverance and resilience in the fight for a just and fair healthcare work place is phenomenal.

My reflection - HER work is pivotal, it tells me that if staff are psychologically safe then our patients will be too! #BRIG

Responding to my BlueSky replies in a timely manner? 😂

On a serious note, looking forward to the CNRF Masterclasses 2025!

Thanks to these sessions I was able to secure my first funding grant! 💃🏾

✅ A session on submitting abstracts for conferences would be my request 🤞🏾
