Detecting bowel cancer at the earliest stage makes you 9 times more likely to be successfully treated. If you are sent a bowel cancer screening test from @NHSEngland, put it by the loo. Don’t put it off. Visit nhs.uk/conditions/bowel-scre… for more information

4/4 If you're interested, DM me. I learnt so much about MedEd, business, and leadership building this, so would be great to give someone the same opportunities. Chunk n Checkers - if you're reading this, we did good didn't we?! 😃

3/4 At its peak, we had a team of 24 volunteers but as we've all graduated and got busy with our NHS lives, none of us have time to keep it moving forward. Ideally looking for someone new to steer the ship and reignite a new committee, so I can bow out and watch CnC keep growing!

2/4 You'd have control of the company and can take it wherever you like. I just ask that the resources my team made stay online as they worked really hard on them. Also working on a guided learning project that just needs a final push over the finish line.

Looking for a keen medical student (or group of!) to take over my MedEd baby Chunk n Check. Lots of effort from the team went into making all the resources so don't want it to go to waste, but I just don't have time to keep it running and need to step back. Please RT/tag! 🧵 1/4

This is a photo of our trauma supplies on the front line where they are desperately needed, in far greater numbers than we are able to provide. Please continue donating medical aid, funds, and opening your hearts and homes to the people of Ukraine 💙💛 дякую

Houses and hospitals are still being bombed daily. There is no safe haven, and people are still seeking shelter in basements. Our help is still required, even more so now than ever before.

107 days of war in Ukraine. It may be featured less in the media. Things may appear more positive. Small wins by Ukraine may be celebrated. But the situation is just as dire as it was 3 months ago. There is still a shortage of medical supplies and equipment.
