When our young people are communicating stressed behaviour, we must regulate, relate, and then reason in that sequence. We must not go straight for the cortex. Young people cannot reason when their emotions are not regulated. Visual credit. @BDPerry @NeuroSequential🧠🌱

Inspirational morning @Lads_Like_Us - sharing their story of trauma and the importance of asking why. So valuable to reflect on the true meaning of ‘trauma informed’ and the powerful role we can play to support change and improving futures. #TamesideHVdevelopment day #AskWhy

CAMHS professionals are great. CAMHS services are not. That’s the consequence of 10+ yrs of austerity stripping out pre-CAMHS services like health visitors, school nurses & children’s centres, and 10 years of increased MH awareness but no increased CAMHS capacity. #LostGeneration

This is worrying. When are the Government going to publish the regional R numbers, as @MetroMayorSteve & I have been asking?
There have been a further 50 coronavirus-related deaths in NW hospitals. Its the fourth successive day that the numbers have risen. The figure presents more than a quarter of all the deaths in England and is by far the highest regional total. The total NW figure stands at 4,100

Will you stand up for Bury's nurses fighting Covid or just be Boris Johnson's MP in Bury North, @JamesDalyMP? (copy of letter to Daly sent to me overnight from Fairfield nurse fighting Covid)

If they'd said from the start that he did break the rules but he did so out of concern for his family, he's sorry and hopes it doesn't mean he loses his job.... I'd be sympathetic. It's the arrogance of the whole episode and the supine Cabinet that is so unbearable.
