"Fail to prepare...." Hope this helps. Your Comms team will help you nail that media interview. #mediatraining #mediaskills

Loved presenting and running media workshops at the @EAMA_eu event in Athens this week. Even had time to visit the Olympic Stadium and pick up a 'gold medal'! 😅 #geriatrics #Athens

Touching moment when a medical director I trained nearly a decade ago, pulled this fold-out card from his wallet this week! If you'd like a PDF, drop me a line. #MediaTraining #NHSComms #Communication

When something goes wrong, remember to show two things - compassion and action #MediaTraining

Just media trained another LMC. Has it ever been more important for GPs to have their voices heard? #GeneralPractice #GPs #LMC #LocalMedicalCommittee

A GP just spared a good chunk of her precious day off to do remote media training with me. Keen to get vital messages across to her patients and decision-makers. #mediatraining #generalpractice #GP

Lovely meeting with @matty7w today. Philosophy, poetry and even a bit of business was discussed!

Two pics one week apart. Mallorca and Yorkshire. Hard to tell which is which! 🌞 #cycling #sunshine

"They own the questions but we own the story". Insightful comment on journalism from a doctor in today's media training session. Be clear, honest and proactive and you can own the story.

Remotely media training ICBs and NHS Trusts as part of their EPRR planning. Happy to help others looking for training! #NHSComms #EPRR

https://t.co/6uio5EGEeC Timely that this comes out on the day I’m using children’s tooth decay as the subject for my talk on media skills. Updating my presentation on the train to Liverpool #mediatraining #publichealth #toothdecay

NHS manager just did one of the best bits of jargon-busting I've heard in a long time, during media training. In her mock TV interview she said "....to give patients a better life" instead of the phrase "improve patient outcomes". #MediaTraining

Remote media training while on holiday. Might be too cruel to tell delegates I’m in Madeira!

I love pretending to be a reporter even more than when I did it for real #MediaTraining

"Quality of life is really important - and quality of death is equally important". Moving quote from a hospice nurse in a media training session I ran earlier (pro bono). #Hospice #PalliativeCare #EndOfLife

About to prepare doctors and nurses to talk about Targeted Lung Health Checks on radio and TV. Just a couple of hours media training on Teams should help them get across lifesaving messages on a subject close to my heart. #lungcancer #lunghealthchecks

Not a bad day #yorkshiredales #Newcastle #cycling #sunshine 🌞

This space was filled four times by 15-20 children & young people. My job was to give each group a 45-min media training session, including practical interviews! No visual aids but made it work, even if I did get dizzy walking in circles to make eye contact 😄 #youthwork

Before you go into a media interview, picture the person you’re trying to influence, inspire or inform. #MediaTraining
