Essential reading here for all MSPs and MPs ahead of next week’s debates on Assisted Dying in the Scottish and UK parliaments 👇. Bravo to colleagues at the Nuffield Trust for rapid analysis of international evidence to inform discussion 👏

Proud wife alert: for the last year my partner Olof has been leading this Parkinson's UK project, creating the charity's biggest ever fundraising appeal. Today it launches - take a look at this brilliant video. I'm VERY excited to see it in lights at Piccadilly Circus later. Bravo

We're proud to launch our Nurse Appeal on the Piccadilly Lights. Thanks @LandsecGroup for your continued support and to Shafaq, Hugh and Nick for sharing your stories. Together, we can work towards a future where every person living with Parkinson’s gets the support and care they need.


Very proud that we have launched this appeal - thank you to everyone involved. Please watch and consider donating Parkinson's UK

How can the #NHS eat up tens of billions and not far off 3% real terms increases, and still struggle? For context see Sally Gainsbury briefing on what has happened the last two years - exactly this. Must think carefully about the costs and demands on it nuffieldtrust.org.uk/resource/down-…



Assisted dying is now likely to pass into English & Welsh law. A tough task implementing it is ahead, including facing the gaps in end of life care highlighted by MPs. We must learn from other countries, who show how different paths can be👇 Sarah Scobie nuffieldtrust.org.uk/news-item/now-…

NEW: Read the response from Thea Stein Nuffield Trust to the announcement today of the 10 Year Health Plan for England. nuffieldtrust.org.uk/news-item/nuff…



In both print and online versions of today’s Financial Times, our Chief Executive Thea Stein says the vision behind the 10 Year Health Plan is the right one. The ambition for England’s NHS is clear, but it will be harder to achieve. ft.com/content/eeff0c…

A decade working with Nigel Edwards drummed into me the importance of thinking about the theory of change sitting underneath major policy reform. So it was a pleasure to have him back to the Nuffield Trust as a guest blogger to reflect on this in the recent Ten Year Health Plan 👇
