I recently saw the brilliant neurosciences dept at Middlesbrough's James Cook Hospital.

But it only has 18 rehab beds when the guidelines say it needs 80 beds.

I asked the PM for the resources to develop a world-class new rehabilitation centre to serve Tees Valley.

Not so much a pro, just really stubborn and determined. Very happy to chat bread any time if helpful.

Some things are worth celebrating. My 2024 ‘perfect’ sourdough. Never to be recreated? Can’t wait to taste it now!!

Revived my current sourdough starter (affectionately called Ambrosia) for some Christmas baking. She is aggressively powerful and I don’t know how to temper the bloom 🥲

Planning ahead Planning things like what type of funeral you want and who to leave your belongings to can make your final days easier, giving you more time with family and friends.

With assisted dying dominating the news, please take a moment to consider your own wishes around the end of life.

It's surprisingly quick & easy to plan ahead.

This guide from @hospiceuk.bsky.social covers advance care plans, powers of attorney etc. So useful.

Love this page. I wish Amy Edmondson was here on BlueSky! It’s not only being willing to learn, but brave enough to fail many times in pursuit of that learning 🙌🏻

I’m in very cold Doncaster for work today. Lovely walk with a good podcast. I always appreciate these opportunities for a slower start.

With a fully remote team of just 20 employees, Bluesky has surpassed 20 million users in its first year since opening to the public and is stealing thunder from rivals hundreds of times its size.

At a time when conventional wisdom among bosses is that workers must be in-person to be productive.

So sad I couldn’t make it Claire. It would have been our annual (I wish it was more) check in about your book 🫶🏻

It’s amazing just how much clinical need there is, with such little provision! Psychologists in GP surgeries was trialled up here in the North East with good success (not for functional symptoms btw)
