1/ 📣Nearly, 200,000 people with a learning disability rely on PIP to support them with the unavoidable price of being disabled. These aren’t optional costs, and they won’t simply disappear because of cuts to PIP.

Wes Streeting to scrap half of NHS targets to focus on waiting lists
The health secretary will announce a range of measures to reduce emergency department waiting times and treatment delays to cut excess deaths

Great interview. We will miss Richard a lot - not only is he inclusive, collaborative and a great CEO - he’s good fun too

Defo get a breadmaker. You can fill it during the time it takes a kettle to boil and it tastes so much better.
