Today, the government announced in the #KingsSpeech that they will bring back the Tobacco and Vapes Bill. This means that children born today will never be able to buy tobacco, protecting thousands of families from the pain of losing their loved one to a lung condition.

A powerful quote today from Hilde De Keyser, #CysticFibrosisEurope talking about the Twinning Expansion Project and patient-driven healthcare. "When you replace I with we, illness becomes wellness!" #ERSCongress #PatOrgDay2024

Long-term exposure to air pollution and a lack of access to green spaces increases the risk of hospitalisation for respiratory conditions. Toxic air is a public health emergency. This research is further evidence that urgent action is needed to tackle the problem. #ERSCongress

I’ve been at the #ERSCongress with my research and innovation colleagues over the weekend and I’ve had an incredible time learning about the latest respiratory research breakthroughs.

So much to think about at today's Health Inequalities in Digital Health event, and particularly how we can reduce and not exacerbate inequalities as we move towards more digital health solutions. Fab infographic from Good Things Foundation #rsmdigihealth
