@stepchgdesign @creativitycare @bethyb1886 @WendyPMitchell I see Wendy as a pioneer in writing about the reality of living with dementia. I was lucky enough to interview her for an article and then to meet her a few weeks ago. She's retained a dry wit & a twinkle in her eyes.

@SarahReed_MHR @bethyb1886 Elizabeth is Missing, interesting in terms of #dementia & also just a really good novel #AlzChat

@bethyb1886 This is so true! I moved from social care management into inspection of H&SC training because I believed so passionately in what you say.

Today we publish the #SpringSurvey22, showing the long-term impact of austerity, C19, spiralling inflation & workforce pressures. Together w/ rising requests for support & increasingly complex needs, are putting adult social care in jeopardy. Full report > https://bit.ly/SBdgt22

Many unpaid #carers feel that respite breaks are out of reach but reaping health benefits of ‘short breaks’ has never been more important ⁦@bethyb1886⁩

#DyingtoTalk @meetmacintyre team support people to be able to talk about their feelings, their loss. Each time a person experiences a bereavement the feelings can change and so can our approach @HealthLD lovely quote from pooh bear 🐻 😞💜😞#LearningDisability

'Being able to have a break from caring and reap the associated health benefits has never been more important.' @bethyb1886 looks at respite for carers in her new #BlogPost.

@bethyb1886 @NicolaP321 @LearningDisEng @HealthLD It was a fantastic workshop we need to do another xx😁

Excited to be teaming up with @LearningDisEng @HealthLD to run our first ever virtual #DyingtoTalk creative workshop to support conversations around death & dying. The team has worked hard to think of ways to support all needs #LearningDisabilities @bethyb1886 @Furniss8Rachel 💜

Should everyone have an 'end-of-life' plan?
This short film would make a wonderful conversation starter about the benefits of planning ahead.
