If you have cancer, or know someone who has, it can be incredibly triggering when someone famous dies.
😰The death of Deborah James is tragic, but you need to look after yourself.
👉Step back from social media and the news, focus on your bubble and be kind to yourself 💛

Thank you @Tesco for listening to the public and taking action on this. I hope @10DowningStreet @sajidjavid @maggie_erewash are listening #JunkFree #obesity #ChildHealthUTurn @CRUK_Policy
3/We are proud to partner with an organisation that listens to the public and supports families to live healthier lives.
Tesco is UK's biggest food retailer. What they do and say matters. Will @10Dowingstreet follow suit and prioritise the health of our nation?

This is brilliant. I particularly like number 2 - if someone is selling you something, be extra careful about the validity of their claims.

We’ve written to @NHSDigital to follow-up on #GPDPR next steps, including governance & comms. We’ve asked for details about oversight groups, including membership & ToR - it's vital that patients & the public are included & have an equal voice. bit.ly/2UtvTHL #usemydata
The #GPDPR has been paused. Good to have confirmation of next steps, which include a communications campaign. We believe it’s essential to involve patients & the public in this from start to finish – the design of the communications, the overall plan & the delivery. #usemydata

At the start of this month we launched our #PlayYourPart campaign – because even though 1 in 2 of us will get cancer, all of us can help beat it.
We’re calling for the UK Government to play their part by providing the NHS the long term investment it needs to train more staff.
