The launch of the @CAREResearch_W was a great event. The key takeaway messages for me were the importance of collaboration and conducting research with individuals rather than for them, as well as helping people thrive rather than merely survive.

Yesterday we lost my son Adam, who passed away after playing football, the sport he loved. We love him so much and the loss is devastating. He will always be with us and never forgotten.
