One of the best bits of our civic year. Welcoming new citizens to the UK at Yorks monthly citizenship ceremonies. Always so many stories, lots of smiles and a privilege to be part of their special day.

I had a small speaking part at @cityofyorkcouncil.bsky.social Citizenship Ceremony today. Truly an honour to welcome new citizens and be part of their special day.

Forget your royalty and mediocre celebs. Today I got to chat again with Yorks D-Day veteran Ken Cooke. This guy is an absolute legend who is so humble and funny. #Respect

The Sheriff of York was established by Royal Charter in 1396. We are the first same sex couple in a civil partnership to hold the offices of York Sheriff and Sheriff’s Consort. So proud of Paul and what great timing for #PrideMonth!

Big thank you (I assume!) to @yorkswildlife.bsky.social for the new decking on Strensall Common. Very tidy and keeps the paths open despite the mud!

Big thank you @acevo.bsky.social board & team. My goodbye gift from the board was a theatre voucher to say thank you. I finally got to use it at the weekend and loved every minute. Now The Musical. Hits the right notes, full of energy, kept me engaged, made me feel safe. Just like them!

Today I talked strategy, governance, mental health and hospice care. More importantly though I discovered a palm tree in the middle of Leeds on a summer like spring day! ☀️

It’s 11am and my head is buzzing at @hospiceuk.bsky.social #HospiceTechLeaders. From cyber security to digital transformation to data and analytics. As an individual hospice, regional group & national sector this sits alongside financial sustainability as one of the big issues to focus on this year

I couldn’t get the lighting right but the Grand Central Trains #York #IceSculpture was very impressive!

Hubby and I were both 54 at the end of last year. To celebrate our birthdays @england.nhs.uk has sent us little pots to poo in to test for bowel cancer. They arrived together in the post today. We can have a lovely romantic weekend now 😂. (Seriously though. Thank you. 🙏)

Loved spotting a bit of charity shop archeology in York today. That branding must be twenty years old at least! @drsarahhughesceo.bsky.social @mindcharity.bsky.social

Incredibly proud to share I’ve appointed as the new Chair of St Leonards Hospice in York. Very much looking forward to working with the team and trustees on making sure everybody across York and North Yorkshire gets the hospice care they need.

After spending 15 hours on multiple delayed and crammed trains this week, today I went to the national railway museum and sat in a Japanese bullet train from 1976. The past never looked so good! (I also need to find new hobbies!)

At #HospiceUKConf this morning @tobyhporter.bsky.social absolutely nailed the opening speech. Talking about Assisted Dying, hospice sustainability and the vital role hospices play in the wider system. The opportunities, complexities and challenges. A superb start to our national conference!

Charged up with caffeine and now en route to Glasgow for @hospiceuk.bsky.social national conference. Always one of my favourites. Looking forward to lots of chat, learning and conference swag!
