The end of the year can feel lonely for some people.

This holiday season, take a small step to connect:
✨Reach out if you can
✨Check in on someone you care about
✨Put your phone away and enjoy a meaningful conversation
✨Organise a small gathering

You are never alone.

Gave blood today 🩸

Less than an hour, a cup of tea, a biscuit … and it could save a life.

Winter is tough for donations, but hospitals need approximately 5,000 units daily. If you can, now’s the time to book.

One small act. Huge impact. ❤️

After an emergency, make sure food is safe.

If food smells bad or looks different (for example, slimy or mouldy), it is not safe for human consumption.

Two key take homes from me from the excellent talk by @doctorwibble.bsky.social
this afternoon “None of us needs to be perfect, we just need to be good enough” and “Who is your critical friend?” i.e who will call you out for being a d*ck and support you to be better?! #ESOTCongress

The temperature looks set to rise again this weekend – but can we trust sunscreen trends on social media? ☀️

We spoke to Professor of Experimental Photobiology Prof. Antony Young to sort fact from fiction and help us stay safe in the sun.
