Today, we handed in over 100,000 petition signatures to 10 Downing Street 📋
It’s a clear message to the government: the cost of cuts is catastrophic ✂️
ALT 6 people in front of 10 Downing Street. 3 are wearing Scope t-shirts. The other 3 are in front. 2 of them, one a wheelchair user, are holding a purple box that reads, '101,025 say the cost of cuts is catastrophic' with the Scope logo on the lid.

When people leave hospital their recovery can be more difficult if they don’t have a strong network of family & friends around. We believe that we should, as a community, be able to create the space for friendships to thrive. See how carecity.org/projects/harnes…

Our projections show that by 2040, people will be living longer but increasingly in ill health.
Claire Fuller, National Primary Care Medical Director for @NHSEngland, reflects on what that will mean for primary care services ⬇️

ALT 'The only way we’ll manage is by changing the model of care. We need to provide truly personalised care, in a way that works for people. And going forward it won’t just be about GPs, care will need to be provided by teams.' Claire Fuller, National Primary Care Medical Director at NHS England

Good to hear discussion on #Today @BBCRadio4 of how you can feel alone, the only one dealing with a cancer diagnosis, and the value of the King sharing his.
This type of #loneliness is called Existential Loneliness where your experience separates you from others.
