Hugely proud of @bjfletcher and his amazing colleagues @EdinburghUni who developed a new glossary of #computing signs in #BSL to empower #Deaf people working in (or learning about) #tech to discuss it in their own language. A richly deserved award. Congratulations! 👋🏻👋🏻 #BDA2023
The final category of the night is 'Data for Good Initiative of the Year' (sponsored by The Dot Collective). Whittling down the nominations into ten Finalists is never easy given the popularity of this category, but we're delighted to confirm that @EdinburghUni are the Winners!

1/x Several months ago, @katebingham2 drove the UK pandemic response. She is incredible 🦸♀️- thanks for your insight. But then she finished and something extraordinary happened. The Winter plan to protect the #immunocompromised was quietly dropped....😫 Why does it matter? 🤷🤷♂️🤷♀️

Today sees the launch of the #Forgotten500k campaign from charities (including @LeukaemiaCareUK @bloodcancer_uk @kidneycareuk @AnthonyNolan) who are calling on @DHSCgovuk to review the decision on #Evusheld and protect the #immunocompromised #COVID

So @RobertJenrick @theresecoffey let me tell you a story. I have just been for my covid booster. No one was wearing a mask, not even the people giving the vaccines. I told them my husband has had a stem cell transplant and who we was doing mine would need to wear a mask. 1️⃣

On the subject of Evusheld “giving a false of security”, it would be wise for @RobertJenrick to actually ask the #forgotten500k about this.
Nobody understands “risk” more than those who have to live their lives with a compromised immune system.

It is morally indefensible that @trussliz has given tax cuts to the richest in our society and yet has not committed to uprating benefits by inflation, as promised by @RishiSunak.

Thank you @libdemdaisy for raising #Evusheld as an urgent point of order this evening at 18:50pm on first day of Parliament reopening. #Evusheld4TheUK

ATTENTION❗️
We've a problem too few know about
500k immune compromised have little protection from Covid as vaccines are ineffective for them
The solution is #Evusheld
32 other countries use it, UK Govt says NO
Pls follow or RT to spread the word

Today is World Leukaemia Day.
Leukaemias are cancers of the white blood cells, which begin in the bone marrow.
Many people with leukaemia have no symptoms. Early detection can save lives
