Most satisfying part of my job: Pete Hooper a stroke survivor greeted me with a big hug for changing his life at the parliamentary reception yesterday. Pete made a full recovery following a thrombectomy procedure UHNM NHS Trust 🏥 Pete is supporting #SavingBrains thrombectomy campaign.

Plenty of Black-headed Gulls in Colwyn Bay at high tide this afternoon (and a solitary sanderling), plus one gull with a black head. Has spring sprung in North Wales? 😁 Iolo Williams RSPB #winterwatch #BirdsOfTwitter

Bit of an epic drive yesterday - I started on Mersea Island at 8.00, detoured to Frinton-on-sea to collect relatives (bit early so I grabbed a skins chillswim, as you do), drove them to Settle and then home to N Wales before midnight 😴 #seaswimming #roadtrip #strokesurvivor

Things are getting feisty in finchland... #BirdsOfTwitter #birdphotography #finches #siskin #redpoll

Happy (if wet and windy) morning bird-watching at @rsbpconwy yesterday. It was only when I was checking back through a few record shots of sand martins that I realised the camera had seen its first swallow of the year. I hadn't seen the roosting redshank either 🙄 #rspb #swallow

Thank you Sir @Neill_Bob for discussing the importance of mechanical thrombectomy in #PMQs today. We look forward to a relevant minister, like Steve Barclay or Helen Whately MP accompanying Sir Bob on his next visit to a thrombectomy centre.

I and colleagues are planning an 16-day expedition to climb the Mera Peak , a 6,476 metres peak in the Himalayas for UHNM Charity 🏥 to raise funds for a new angiographic suite to support the 24/7 Thrombectomy Service at UHNM. Please donate here… justgiving.com/page/sanjeev-n…

Phew, that was tough 🥵. Delighted to finish in 2.41 at the Potters Arf. It's three years since I had a massive stroke which should have killed me. But thanks to the fantastic stroke team at UHNM NHS Trust 🏥 I'm back in the race. Stroke Association #savingbrains

Three years on from my life-saving thrombectomy and a year on from Stroke Association's #SavingBrains campaign and thousands of eligible patients are still missing out on the game-changing treatment. 6,903 in the last year alone.

Around 6.00am on a Sunday morning in June 2020, Peter was opening the door to let the dogs out. He suddenly had an overwhelming sense of vertigo, and fell out of the door, ending up in a heap on the lawn. He tried calling for help, but he couldn't speak. "I was blue-lighted to

I hate it when I see a micromoth in the field (Denbighshire) and manage to get a record shot, and then think ooh, that's distinctive, that'll be easy to ID. Hahahaha.... thought it was a small very pale Crambid, erring towards the knot-horns now, but stumped. Help UK Moth Identification 🙏

Couple of moths which are new to me and possibly new to the area (Flintshire). A Rustic Shoulder-knot from the moth trap; and a Cloaked Pug disturbed in the forest. I'd be really grateful if you could confirm my IDs UK Moth Identification before I log them on iRecord 🙏

Stroke instantly changes lives but SPEEDY aims to change things back by improving access to thrombectomy. The posts below are a thank you to 🚑 🏥 from one of our public supporters who experienced what a huge difference this can make. Please read and share 🙏🏻👇🏻 #SavingBrains

Even if patients are transferred between hospitals, that additional delay can make a huge difference to their chances of a full recovery. SPEEDY aims to show that some of these patients can be found whilst still in the first ambulance and have an equal chance of quick treatment.

Thrombectomy changed my life – please continue supporting SPEEDY so you can transform the lives of more patients in future. Thank you for everything you do, you're all stars. Peter (p.s. here’s me with my consultant Indira Natarajan after a different kind of race against ⏱️☺️)
