Speaking last night on the importance of reopening the Gordon Hospital’s 51 Acute Mental Health Beds. Reopening these beds shouldn’t come at the cost of other community mental health services. As one size will never fit all with mental health.

Team Holland back on the cricket field for one of our favourite events of the year - the @RBKC Summer Activity Day! From climbing walls and Tai Chi to face painting, cricket and more, there was something for everyone. A huge thanks to all who made it happen 🏏☀️

I spoke at Full Council last night about the Olympia development and the very real concerns residents in Holland Ward have about parking pressures. These decisions affect daily life and they need to work for the people who live here, not just those passing through. @AarienAreti

After nearly two years of scrutiny, challenge and hard work, we’ve secured 10 crisis and step-down beds to be reopened in Westminster, following the Gordon Hospital’s closure. It’s not all we fought for, but more than we thought we’d get—and a step forward. Last night was our

This isn’t the end of the road—but it’s a meaningful step forward. After much hard work, 10 beds (5 crisis, 5 step-down) will reopen at the Gordon Hospital (closed since the pandemic) and the MHCAS will stay at St Charles in RBKC. Right up until the last moment, we thought there

Another brilliant intergenerational morning at the Reed Centre today—huge thanks to Kate Deighton and the fantastic @time_givers team for bringing everyone together 💕

Holland Park’s brand-new outdoor gym is open! A brilliant boost for the park and already proving popular. Here are a few snaps of some enthusiastic amateurs giving it a go!

Deeply moving to be at @StMarysTrust Ukrainian School this morning for their concert ahead of the 3rd anniversary of the invasion. The children sang about their love for their country, their people and those they have lost—holding onto hope and the fight for freedom. Despite the

Today, our local NHS @HealthierNWL launched a consultation on palliative care. Since the closure Pembridge inpatient beds and the move to a community based model, I encourage all to respond to this. It's imperative we have the right services in @RBKC https://t.co/IuEGF2FqB6

For the first time, anyone in a mental health crisis can now call 111 and receive support from trained mental health professionals. The 24/7 service is available for all ages, including children, providing vital help through a single phone line. https://t.co/Dxc9ahAao1

Honoured to join @RBCK Council's annual lunch for elderly residents with @LucindasaKnight ! Our young TimeGivers from @KPAschool played Bingo, sang, and handed out handmade gifts. Thanks to all for a joyful day! 🎉❤️ #Volunteering #Community

Exciting times joining @platformLDN1 primary school cricket tournament in Holland Park today. Well done to all those involved and @AarienAreti @jthalassites and I even got to show off some of our amateur skills 🏏 A fantastic program developing London’s children in and through

Proud to have taken one of these beautiful buildings on and brought it back to life. If we don’t invest in and protect our historic sites we’re destined to lose them. Also, some shameless self-promotion: Café Pier is open Thursday - Sunday 9-4! By Albert Bridge! 🥐🥯☕️

View from the new balcony that has been installed at the @earlscourtdevco Padel Social Club today. Feeling a little bit more like spring! Food stalls to follow soon. Such a fantastic spot 🎾🎾👏🏼

On Thursday the NWL JOSCH will be meeting with leaders of the NHS and ICB to discuss their recent pause on the introduction of ‘Same day access hubs’. We are very much looking forward to hearing what comes next? And how they plan to engage, consult and co-produce this offer

Very welcome news! Thanks to everyone who expressed concern and worry. Thanks also to @FelicityBuchan who helped with this campaign after we both met the CEO of the ICB last week to ask them to seriously reconsider these proposals. https://t.co/oo2sNmLfL2

Breaking: ICB backs down on same-day access plans due to GP and patient backlash. So happy to hear ICS leaders have listened to the voices of patients and GPs and pressed pause on these changes. They have committed to allowing more time to work with PCNs, GPs and patients to
