A constituent went to @AsdaServiceTeam in Westbrook for their weekly shop, met a friend, decided to go for a coffee, lost track of time..now they’ve got a £100 charge for overstaying by 20mins. Advised they use the new @aldi and @lidl stores for weekly shop, soon save that £100!
How lovely to receive a message from one of @WarringtonCA’s commissioners at @WarringtonBC saying #thanks for all you do in these difficult times. We do it because we care but is so nice and very much appreciated to get such a lovely message of thanks. ☺️

#NHS staff learn about equality etc, but I’d make it compulsory for all to learn about patient/family #palliative_care in an “end of life” event. The support & empathy from all (cleaners through to nurses to DRs et al) on @WHHNHS AMU1 ward been brilliant … thank-you ❤️

Too often senior management teams in the public sector lack diversity 😔. How can they be sure they’re considering all options & coming up with the best solutions for local communities? 🤷🏻♂️. One way around this is work with local voluntary sector leaders to co-design soln’s. 😊

In the 5 weeks since this election was announced, @CitizensAdvice has helped 30,000 people with access to crisis support. That’s food banks and charity grants.
It's essential that both leaders set out how they plan to tackle the landslide in living standards. #LeadersDebate
