This place is becoming a bit of a cesspit, it's a fish rotting from the head. I'm on LinkedIn and going to give Threads a go. Give me a follow if you are on there. https://t.co/8asjduhOK9

Loads of exciting things in the King's Speech today, but this one particularly caught my eye. Hopefully it will mean an end to the lack of parity of esteem and funding we've seen lately. (On the digital front, only funding acute EPRs to use the NHS app is a stark example)

Congratulations to Gary O’Hare, who has been recognised in the King’s birthday honours list with an MBE for services to mental health and disabilities in the NHS 👏 Gary was CNTW’s Executive Director of Nursing and Operations for many years, until retiring last year.

If this is true it's unbelievable, being handed a contract for cyber security whilst withholding details of being hacked. Hope the @ICOnews take this into account. When are we going to stop handing gov contracts to dishonest firms? https://t.co/QtkUqSuD9Q

The more we digitise the more we need to invest in cyber security. It's not an optional extra or a nice to have. https://t.co/7HBPy43evO

The NHS planning guidance for 2024/25 was published just before Easter (it’s usually Christmas!). I’ve picked out some Digital/Data highlights (with a specific focus on MHLDA). - Confirms Spring...

Horrendous delays on the East Coast mainline on the way back from #rewired. Big thanks to the @CrossCountryUK train crew who have been brilliant despite a difficult and very long day for them.

Great to see mainstream media covering this. This isn't just about our bubble in #DigitalHealth, this is about the values we expect of ourselves and others so we create digital products, platform and services created with a diverse society in mind https://t.co/TQreeCFV2j
