Excellent suggestion that all acute admissions for cancer patients should trigger a ā€˜what matters most’ conversation.

Fascinating panel discussion about how we attract, retain and value the nursing workforce. My beautiful mum was in a campaign to attract people into the profession in the 1960s and had a very rewarding, joyful career - perhaps nearly 60 years later we need another campaign?

A wonderful episode on BBC Radio 4 Lauren Laverne It strikes me that Professor Lucy Easthope is the personification of decency, compassion, kindness and respect - such wisdom gained from a life spent dealing with disaster. And a great soundtrack choice too ā¤ļø

A turning point in cancer care. The CHALLENGE trial shows exercise after cancer treatment reduces recurrence by 28% and mortality by 37%. If this were a drug, we’d prescribe it tomorrow. It’s time we prescribe movement. šŸ“ Read my latest blog: lucygossage.com/exercise-is-me…

What an incredible, cinematically beautiful, moving, powerfully written book. Thank you Dr Rachel Clarke for such powerful story telling, and to my fellow passengers on the train who have tactfully ignored me crying quietly to myself as I read it!

Very proud to be with our Yorkshire team representing Marie Curie at Leeds Pride today. After weeks of drought in Yorkshire the heavens opened and we got absolutely soaked but the rain didn’t dampen our spirits #lgbtq #leedspride
