A new report from TransActual looks at the impact of the 2025 EHRC interim update on access to, and experiences within, gendered spaces in the UK. Read the full report here: transactual.org.uk/gendered-spa... #TransRights #EHRC #ScrapTheBathroomBan #EqualityAct

Image of a megaphone on a pink and purple background. Text reads: Gendered Spaces and the Impact of the EHRC Non-Statutory Interim Update on Trans, Intersex and Gender Non-Conforming Adults. Discrimination and harassment have increased for both trans and non trans people since the EHRC’s “Interim Update”.

Image of a megaphone on a pink and purple background. Text reads: Following challenge or harassment, respondents reported avoiding gendered spaces because of fear of violence or intimidation.

One Month Milestone for the MCS-Stroke Project It’s been just one month since we opened recruitment for the MCS-Stroke project across two NHS hospitals — and I'm thrilled to share that we’ve already recruited and assessed 24 stroke survivors using the new tool. www.linkedin.com/posts/sam-s-...

Ok #FESN2025 is over! As always, my favourite mainland European conference. My main goal is to make new connections, meet up with existing connections, and get my work out there. This year I presented the Mini-OCS, which is now fully out there for use with chronic stroke survivors in English..

Ahead of next weeks Federation of the European Societies of Neuropsychology (FESN) conference in Leipzig, Germany, see our poster showcasing the Mini-Oxford Cognitive Screen. The screening tool is now available for licensing and use. We think it best suits primary care settins with chronic stroke.

Back to work after Easter break which followed annual leave. Half of my morning was making a todo list from the mass emails received in the last 7-days - soon to actually start! Happy Easter all - lets smash the next few months until summer.

Co-production workshops done for the week - such an exceptional experience to hear from a diverse range of healthcare professionals to inform development of our new cognitive screen. Now to decode all of the feedback and make changes!

Count down 15 minutes (!!) for my first allied health professional workshop as part of my postdoctoral fellowship funding by the Stroke Association to co-produce a staged cognitive screening tool for stroke.

This academic year, I have submitted two of my first ever NHS ethics applications (one commercial one non-commercial). How different the process is depending on whos paying! First REC meeting today, wish me luck :)

Very much looking forward to speaking in this #UKSF session next week and sharing my thoughts on the methodological future for efficient stroke trials. Just need to squeeze that huge topic into 15 mins and finish off my slides! 😂
