I wish you all a joyous Durga Puja. This is one of the grandest Hindu festivals of the year and a personal favourite. Through prayer, events, and festivities, it celebrates the triumph of good over evil and the goddess as the motherly power behind life and creation.

Tomorrow, we celebrate the victory of good over evil, of light over darkness. The end of Durga Puja reminds us that no matter how challenging life gets, we can overcome all obstacles with courage, faith, and perseverance. Happy Dussehra!

Two-thirds of those self-presenting at A&E 'do not need to be there'. Funding the NHS alone will not fix wait times and delayed discharges without collaboration with the entire network of healthcare services. I shared my thoughts in today's Herald. heraldscotland.com/opinion/248096…

Wellbeing enablers should be seen as core team members as they play a crucial role in enhancing residents’ quality of life. Integrating physical,mental, and emotional wellbeing into care is extremely important More of my thoughts can be found on page 36 caring-times.co.uk/magazines/cari…

An afternoon tea with Mrs. Gupta was made even more special by our staff, who pleasantly surprised us with a traditional homemade Indian meal. I feel incredibly touched and proud of them for their effort in making our afternoon together so memorable. Thank you!

The closure threat at Glenfield care home is another flashing red light. Outstanding homes shouldn’t be shutting their doors. We urgently need a sustainable plan for social care — before there’s nothing left to save.

International recruitment has long supported Scotland’s care sector. Abruptly removing this pathway, without a plan to fill the gap, risks essential services. I reflect on what’s needed next in The Scotsman. 🔗 scotsman.com/community/yet-…

Deeply saddened by the tragic loss of life in today’s Air India crash in Ahmedabad. My thoughts and prayers are with the victims, their families, and the brave first responders. May those lost rest in peace. 🙏 #AirIndia #OmShanti
