If you need support to read instructions📑, or if you are Deaf 🧏or Blind 👨‍🦯, you will now find it easier to visit a Covid testing centre thanks to changes we've made as a result of your feedback. Read our article here: bit.ly/3oEKFVA

Kooth continue to offer support to young people between the ages 11 & 24. Know a young person who is struggling with not seeing their friends for #NewYear this year? Kooth can help to provide them with some support. #MentalHealth | #Kent

An unexplained pain that lasts three weeks or more could be a sign of cancer. It’s probably nothing serious, but finding cancer early makes it more treatable. Your NHS is here to see you, safely. nhs.uk/cancersymptoms

This is a really important message to all men which I am happy to amplify and signpost to @mastectomynet
We struggle to reach men - there’s still more to do re: raising awareness. We have an online men’s support and advice group for those undergoing surgery and it would be great if we could let all men know we exist (Facebook won’t allow us to advertise). Breast cancer isn’t pink

An unexplained lump could be a sign of cancer. It’s probably nothing serious, but finding cancer early makes it more treatable. Contact your GP. nhs.uk/cancersymptoms

Breaking: @MattHancock agrees to meet with the #CatchUpWithCancer campaign. Thanks to @timfarron for highlighting that cancer services would have to run at 135% capacity for six months, based on our analysis, in order to clear the backlog caused by the coronavirus pandemic

It's #WorldSepsisDay. If not treated quickly, sepsis can be fatal. Help to Care supports carers to understand who is at risk, the signs of a problem, and who to call if you suspect sepsis #StopSepsis #SaveLives @WorldSepsisDay @KMhealthandcare @Kent_cc @medway_council

Talking about dying/death is hard & many adults believe kids shouldn’t be included in any death chats. But kids want honesty. Honesty gives them security. Pip’s Kit explains dying, death and grief in a straightforward way @CBNtweets @RuthStraussFdn @cbukhelp @winstonswish – at Lewisham, London
