Extremely grateful to my surgeon Mr Tim Sinnett and everyone in the Trauma & Orthopaedics and physiotherapy team. I would also like to thank my other surgeon, Miss Sarah Mills who provided invaluable reassurance and support before my surgery. Thank you @ChelwestFT! @NHSEnglandLDN
In 2023, footballer Iona McDougall underwent bilateral clubfoot surgery, which was first operated on when she was a baby. For #WorldClubfootDay (3 June) Iona shared her story in partnership with @chelseafc, @GlobalClubfoot & @STEPS_Charity and inspired the next generation 💙⚽

Today in particular, on the day you were laid to rest, this one’s for you, Matt Beard. ❤️ I’ll never forget your advice, guidance and for being a coach who was genuinely supportive of inclusivity in sport. Miss you.

Forever grateful, @leonalewis - words can’t fully express what you’ve done for me. I’ve always found handwritten cards incredibly special. I often read them back, keep them so safe and cherish every single one. 💖

Over the years I’ve made many memories with @leonalewis -photos, videos, messages & moments I’ll never forget. But this one really means a lot. When I’m going through a particularly difficult time right now, it hits differently. It’s also a reminder we all just need to be kind.❤️

Resharing the video @macmillancancer shared in March on their social media platforms as a reminder that you’re not alone if today is difficult. Thinking of everyone missing someone today. 💚 @OPA_UK @bowelcanceruk

Very niche and specific practical pupillage advice: if you have a disability that requires you to wear untraditional/non-formal footwear, you'll be pleased to know I've never ever been asked, let alone criticised, for it 😊
