I’m 32 today. Growing older is a privilege I don’t take for granted, one sadly not afforded to many friends I grew up with. To mark the occasion, I finally got my Naloxone certification - heroin overdoses have impacted my hometown my entire life. Enough is enough #harmreduction

Last year, I ran in an election where I faced ongoing abuse, harassment and coercive control. It’s relentless and goes on and on, along with the wall of institutional gaslighting. I want to be clear once more: I will never submit.

Now a @CIHFutures session on navigating a career in housing, building a network and connections to enhance your role and future. A great message that if housing needs a long term plan it needs to build a pool of talent to deliver in the long term #HousingCommunitySummit

My mom Marian Robinson was my rock, always there for whatever I needed. She was the same steady backstop for our entire family, and we are heartbroken to share she passed away today. We wanted to offer some reflections on her remarkable life:

BREAKING: The majority of Scots support the Scottish Parliament having the right to negotiate and legislate for independence. A new poll from FindOutNow reveals that 57.5% are in favour of Holyrood having powers over independence referendums or negotiations.

My best present on Christmas day is waking up warm, safe & loved. Homelessness, overdose after overdose, suicide attempts, jails, hospitals, I never thought I'd make it this far, today I'm just thankful to be alive. Thank you all for the support, love & understanding.

Your regular reminder that 81% of new social housing lettings go to white British tenants and 90% go to UK nationals. At a dangerous political moment, please don't let the right establish one of their favourite narratives (lies): that immigrants get all the council housing.

Delighted with this result - Abri again debunking the theory that you can’t be large and local or with scale you can’t have highly connected motivated colleagues… our 2k colleagues say we can..

Take a bow @LaraOyedele 💫 PS @BritishVogue’s cover would be privileged to have you ❤️ #proudtobeprofessional #UKHousing #ElPresidente

I had the privilege of spending some time with George as a young journo. A consummate professional, I’ll remember his kindness, support, legendary presence and lifelong passion for quality journalism, in an especially challenging and changing world #GeorgeAlagiah

"I'd rather be dead than be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life." This is a direct quote that was said to my face in a work environment, in front of a room full of people. 🧵 1/3
