So what have I missed??

The Government has chosen to waste another opportunity to save lives today. Local suicide prevention funding hasn’t been renewed like we hoped it would, meaning funding that so many communities in England depend on will completely run out at the end of this month #Budget2024🧵

It means communities are left with less support at a time when suicide rates are as high as they were over 20 years ago. The Government published a suicide prevention strategy in September - but without funding at both a national and local level, it won’t reach its targets.

If we make a reduction to suicide in macros, in our communities, the result on National figs. could be huge. We can all make a difference by learning to open up conversations. We need to support at grass roots because we understand our people . @JudeGrinter @SarahFitchett2
Via her podcast, Alison Dunn enabled me to talk about my 3 key passions: 1) #TransformationalChange 2) #SuicidePrevention 3) how we can move towards a #ZeroSuicideSociety It's a superb podcast, but it doesn't tell the full story - see thread below👇 open.spotify.com/episode/2rt…

Very well written piece. I've seen many patients 'stuck' on wards. It's heartbreaking to see many deteriorate. We do our best but as caring humans there is a limit to our resilience.
For those who don't fully understand what is up with the NHS, here is a thread for you that might help. I'm a consultant physician working as a doctor in the NHS in Yorkshire and Wales for 32 years now. I have experienced the NHS at its best (2008) and its worst (2022).

This year has been f***king hard work. After losing Andrew, if I could forsee what this year held I doubt I'd still be here (honest post). Looking forward to next year as it really can only get better. Positives will out!!!!

Nature of plants🍄
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Fungi are not plants. More importantly these are not real fungi, but a creation of digital artist Luke Penry. Deeply fake and misleading post. instagram.com/luke_penry.exr/
