This thread has made me chuckle, I especially love the suggestion to call it the Tipping Forecast…

@katecollinsuk.bsky.social, Chief Executive at Teenage Cancer Trust, says: “Today’s announcement by the Chancellor, of a £29bn funding boost for the NHS is a welcome step towards improving NHS Services. However, this must not result in a wasted opportunity for young people with cancer. (1/5)

Ooooh. And there I was thinking this was nicer than the other place and you’re throwing around boomer comments…

Great Scott!! Dare I ask about the Back to the Future schism?!

Great first meeting of the CYP Cancer Taskforce charities sub-group, exploring how we can inform and support the work of the Taskforce and cancer plan. Lots of enthusiasm for how we move forward, ideas for next steps, and shared priorities across both children and teenagers and young adults 1/2

That was my guess 🥰

Oooh! Which night?

Huge thanks to everyone - artists, managers, producers, promoters and…from Friday ticket buyers….making the 2025 #TeenageCancerGigs possible, making sure
@TeenageCancerTrust.bsky.social can raise the funds we need so young people and their families don’t face cancer alone.

Thank you x

Smashing start to 2025, seeing the terrific Newsquest and @teenagecancertrust.bsky.social partnership launch 👌

Congratulations 🥂

She’s beautiful 😍 (but you know that!!)

Oh the smile on my face reading this thread Howard! Thank you 🙏

😂

Long week and I’m now confusing things that begin with D! 🤣

Ooh the Charles Darwin in the style of the Smiths? 👌

Tough question… them laughing? Mine had a filthy laugh at that age and it was glorious 🥰 (and I do know you weren’t really asking…)

So richly deserved! HH remains a firm family favourite - The Georges, WW2 pilots and The Vikings remain strongly debated as to which is the best song…and we can still sing them all (child now 17!!) Have a brilliant night x

Wow. What a sky this morning here in Staffordshire. Beautiful.

Congratulations!! 🥳

100% this. As the mother of a young child with SEND the extra labour is intense. Thanks for highlighting @hannahfearn.bsky.social

Yep!

Lovely. Do rest up and recover x

😂

Today I get to spend time with four of the people I love the most in the whole world. That’s blooming marvellous ❤️

Plus my Mum is bringing homemade cake. 🍰

Wishing everyone a happy - and ideally cake-filled - Saturday 🥰

Lovely to be interviewed for this article about the shift to Bluesky.

I didn't notice a tagging fail! Any correction was by absolute (happy!) accident ;-)

This. This is what properly person-centred holistic care looks (and feels) like.

Love this. Thank you @david3012.bsky.social for sharing and thank you @stleonardshospice.bsky.social @hospiceuk.bsky.social for all you do.

Tell her we’d love to see her. I’ll pop the kettle on ☕️

An information page in yellow with strong navy blue text that says “So, what is Advance Care Planning?”

Delighted to see this partnership working launch today between the ace @teenagecancertrust.bsky.social team & the team at Marie Curie.

Creating something better than either of us can do alone. Stronger together 💪

What I also love is no-one asked me. The team just knew what made sense 👏
