Lovely to be at 400th Bevendean Down parkrun today. Getting up that never ending hill twice takes some doing but then there is a long downhill. Big turnout well organised and group photo before start!

Great to take part in Faculty of Public Health Royal College of Psychiatrists event on #publicmentalhealth Important to work across boundaries/disciplines to implement effectively. Also heard much more use can be made of routine health and other data to make case e.g. help ensure experience and voices of all are heard

In Bodø Norway to see my friend and colleague IPSNOR Beate Brinchmann defend her PhD Thesis 'Can Individual Placement and Support (IPS)(supported employment) contribute to changing life of individuals experiencing mentalhealth problems?' Been a pleasure to collaborate with her

Good to run first half-marathon of the year at the Milton Keynes Festival of Running today in just over 2hrs and 3 mins. Enjoyed the run; should have worn gloves though, was really quite bitter weather. Really contrast from warm weather at parkrun in Northampton on Saturday.

Join us for a thought-provoking session in 5 minutes as experts debate: Do we need psychiatric asylums again? The role of psychiatric asylums in modern mental health care. Are they a relic of the past or a necessary solution for today’s challenges? #EPA2025

V important Martin Lewis Councils in England responsibe for public health; unmanageable debt major risk factor 4 poor #mentalhealth & ppl w mentalhealth conditions high risk of debt. Councils use rapid punitive measures & bailiffs; totally unacceptable needs to be stopped now

David McDaid (@dmcdaid) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Investigation good; but there needs to be a moratorium now on these debt collection processes. Why are local councils Local Government Association (LGA) organisations responsible for #publichealth including #mentalhealth and #wellbeing allowed to do something that is so wrong?

Lovely to run the Wezenlanden parkrun in Zwolle for first time today. Another friendly well organised run - and Zwolle is a lovely little city.

A chance to take part in Kralinge Bos parkrun. Beautiful course and beautiful day and surprisingly my best ever age graded time and fourth fastest ever. Not that time important of course
