A further 2 care homes owned by Blue Ribbon Healthcare Group have had their quality ratings suspended by the CQC. It comes after we uncovered multiple allegations of abuse and neglect at the care company. 4 Blue Ribbon homes are now under investigation. www.itv.com/news/2026-08...

Massive thanks to @dugganjr.bsky.social for organising yesterday’s event on social murder and the government’s proposed reforms of the benefit system. @sarasiobhan.bsky.social’s forthcoming book is going to be so important and it was great to speak alongside such a brilliant scholar & activist.

Kim leadbeater suggesting there's an army of social workers to safe guard people with assisted dying... Mean while back in the real world Amber's care agency not been able to support is is not an emergency & hopefully we will hear from social worker in 28 days...

Last year Steph was finally rehoused in a permanent, accessible newbuild council flat - which then proved to be riddled with faults, including the only lift regularly breaking down. She's now had to be moved into a hotel. More here: www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

I was pretty brutally honest at today's event. Parent carers aren't supported. We aren't even seen as individuals, we can't look after our own health and well-being. The awful reality around parent carer suicide, transitions been non existent for our children or us. Services constantly failing us.

Off to Parliament this morning to talk about all things transitions to adult services (or lack of) and how we support parents carers. Or in reality how we don't support them properly or enough. #carersrightsdsy

Lovely carer came this morning and so Amber's off to a swim I'm in uni working on a policy briefing around the care Act, which feels slightly ironic...and then planning stuff for next week around a whole number of issues that affect disabled children, young people and their families..

BREAKING: The assisted dying bill, proposed by Kim Leadbeater MP, has just been published in full. It would apply to adults with a terminal illness and less than 6 months to live. They'd need 2 doctors and judge to approve. Full details here: www.itv.com/news/2024-11...

In other news I've been invited to an event for Carers Rights day. I'm not a fan of #carersRightsDay but these feels like a good opportunity to ensure parent carers have a voice. Will share more nearer the time.

Went for a walk in the rain today on the wizard trail made me feel much better, followed by coffee and cake. Found being outside calming good, followed by a nice Sunday lunch with family. My beautiful girl, she's all the that matters and if she says I've done good that's enough for me 💜
