Sadly, the time has come to move out of X/Twitter. I don't like the culture and I don't like the boss. I will gradually move to @mfoulkes.bsky.social. Come and see me over there.

So.....this is me two weeks ago picking up my MBE for 'services to nursing'. I need to say that my time as a CNS in Head and Neck Cancers and in brain tumours was the defining role in my career. Happy #NationalCancerCNSDay @UKONSmember @CancerLead @macmillancancer – at Reading, England
Me in 1993 as a staff nurse on oncology ward at Charing Cross Hospital, @ImperialNHS London, UK. I already knew my career would be in cancer care. I would later become a CNS Head and Neck Cancer. @UKONSmember @CancerLead #NationalCancerCNSDay

Urgent need to develop the Cancer CNS workforce; by 2030 we will have a predicted shortfall of 4K posts across UK. @m_worm @HilaryBaker8 explain 2 CNS development programs - but we need more #NCLCancerNursing2025 #NationalCancerCNSDay
