It's hard to believe that as a profession working with people who are at their most vulnerable and being entrusted to care for the deceased that we are not statutory registered in line with other healthcare professions.

Incredible
Wax anatomical female figure 1818 by Francesco Calenzuoli (I.e.Anatomical Venus- see more on my blog) on display @sciencemuseum. Her calm beautiful exterior clashes with the ‘gore’ of her exposed body cavity. An attempt to dilute the horrors of death. #wellcometrustgallery

What a heartwarming story. I can picture this human shield ensuring no eye contact or communication occurred whilst simultaneously working in unison. Only a true Londoner could manage this.
I’m having a weird day so I’m going to tell you this tiny moment when Londoners came through for me. It was the day my husband found his father dead in his house in north London. I was in Bow. I got on the packed tube, tears dripping silently off my cheeks. I stood by the door.

What name do you like most for our family room? It will be decorated shortly in keeping with the Trust end of life symbol "The Gerbera". Or tweet your own suggestions?

If you need urgent medical advice this weekend & you’re not sure where to go, call NHS 111. It’s staffed by medical professionals who can help you get the care you need. Do your bit to help us focus on our sickest patients, & keep A&E for emergencies only. https://t.co/L44iuiziEu
