Today @LearningDisEng announced they are leaving X as it no longer fits their organisational values.
Couldn't agree more, so this will be my last tweet/thread.
Which of course means that I will be leaving the amazing @CamdenLDService 😭
While I am incredibly excited about the opportunity to work with @BASW_UK it is going to be a real wrench to leave @CamdenCouncil after 8 years leading such an amazing and inspiring team
No words can do justice to the thanks I owe to all of @CamdenLDService most of whom are not on X.

What a great idea @CamdenLDService

Proud of @CamdenLDService 's role in supporting this research into how we can support older people w #learningdisabilities to make & sustain connections to their local communities.
Next step: business case 4 investment?

It was great to see so many great partners at this event and share updates from our new project Unity Futures as well as our training programmes for adults with a learning disability!
Our Preparing for Adulthood event @ Greenwood Centre, in Kentish Town, today was an opportunity for parents & carers with children who have special educational needs and disabilities to find out about services, support and opportunities for ages 18+ #CamdenSEND @goodworkcamden

👏🏼👏🏼 Well done @uclh for making a real investment in #accessibleimformation for people with #learningdisabilities across all its services. Other #NHS trusts should follow their lead @CamdenLDService @CamdenSPForum @camdenDisAction @Healthwatchcam

⌛️ Time to get it right.
🚫 That means scrapping the cruel & unjust two-child limit & benefit cap policies that are responsible for pushing & trapping people in poverty across the UK.
✍️ The first of our #GE24 blogs takes a closer look at this critical ask in our manifesto ⬇️
