This quote from @SheffieldLuke beautifully highlights the complexity of autism. The idea of assigning a "severity grade" doesn’t capture the true experience of being autistic. It’s not about levels, but understanding that the experience of autism is fluid & diverse. #Autism

And that’s a wrap for #NFNC2024 please continue to tag us in your content! A huge well done to our network leads and local organising committee for a brilliant inaugural conference 🙌🏽

Response to Kemi Badenoch's "Conservatism in Crisis" from our CEO, James Cusack (@jamcusack). Badenoch's comments are part of a damaging and, unfortunately, growing trend where people attempt to use issues like #autism and #neurodiversity to gain political capital by making

Kemi Badenoch’s comments and the statements in the ‘Conservatism in Crisis’ document are not only offensive to autistic people but detached from reality and demonstrate a fundamental lack of understanding of autism and disability: https://t.co/1qVU6PQiva 1/4

Had a great time today presenting findings from the @NIHR_ARC_NENC supported NENC NHS staff tobacco dependency offer evaluation @SmokefreeNHS_NE at #SSM2024 @SocSocMed (my first conference presentation!) and also getting chance to explore Glasgow :)

Great to see findings & recommendations from the ⁦@SmokefreeNHS_NE⁩ staff tobacco dependency offer evaluation Support at work acceptable to NHS staff & having that support by trained advisors & in the workplace should be a key priority for employers

Presenting findings from the @poco_study_nu today at the @MidwivesRCM #rcmconf24 😃 come and chat with us!

Some of the PoCo study team are in Liverpool today, for the @MidwivesRCM conference. Come and have a chat if you're here - John, Paul, George and Ringo loved hearing all about our latest findings!

Am I living in some sort of alternate universe where Teesside represents the last glimmer of hope for the Conservative Party’s General Election prospects How did this happen?

Labour WIN: Congratulations to @KiMcGuinness, the new Labour North East Mayor🌹
