I have been wanting to hike for YEARS but unable because of my spine injury. It’s taken one year and four months of determination and working hard on my mobility, but today I DID IT. I could cry. You people have no idea. I never, ever thought I’d be able to do anything like that ever again. ❤️

Saw this today and made a real impression on me.

Alice Augusta Ball found the cure for leprosy at 23. She died in a mysterious lab accident at 24. Arthur Dean stole her research, stole it and renamed it from "The Ball Method" to "The Dean Method." It took 90 years before her original research papers were found and she got the credit due to her.

What if you had the power to fight climate change, clean the air, and rebuild a home for wildlife, all in one single action? You do. It’s called planting a tree. Afforestation isn't just about pretty landscapes; it's about survival.

Caught up with the fab @nnuh.bsky.social physiotherapy team today who are running our @nihr.bsky.social GRRAND trial on rehab following head & neck cancer surgery. Super team, doing super stuff & great to see this being offered in Norfolk 👏🏻

Nice literature review on the state of play in Total Ankle Replacement surgery - with extra lovely 'tabloid title' of "early failures to fourth-generation innovations" 😀 link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Tonight after sunset at Crosby beach, magical light. The still air meant perfect reflections in a river of tidal water as nature’s brush painted a masterpiece of art across the sky using a palette of pinks and oranges to colour the streaks of high cloud. #IronMenCrosby

Thank you to those who follow me. Happy xmas to one and all.

Are you aged 18 or over? Have you sustained a stroke? Do you suffer sudden onset, uncontrollable crying, or laughter episodes since the stroke? Post-stroke emotionalism is a common problem and at UEA we are conducting ground-breaking clinical research to find an effective medical treatment.

Imagine working unpaid for the rest of the year. This is the reality for stroke survivors up and down the country. Today is Disability Pay Gap Day, which means disabled people will stop being paid compared to non-disabled colleagues, earning £4,300 less/year. Why should stroke survivors be poorer?

1 in 3 stroke survivors will feel like a burden to their loved ones this Christmas but it’s #StillChristmas. Watch and share this film to help more survivors and their families find support. Give the gift of stroke support this Christmas.

Offering meat-free lunches five days a week could save the NHS £2.2 billion annually, yet resistance to change remains. A small study in New York found over 90% satisfaction with plant-based options, saving $0.59 per-person, and an estimated 36% reduction in emissions. #UKSF25
