Play shouldn’t stop at the playground gate. At Poole Hospital, I saw play used to explain MRI scans with LEGO, ease fears with syringe demos, and support physio outdoors. Crucially, it turns treatment into a language children can understand. 💙 @UHD_NHS

This is what our politicians should be saying. Peace has to be the goal, we need to stop fanning flames of hatred. Great job @LaylaMoran

“I’m bitterly disappointed by the purposefully divisive rhetoric coming from gov’t, in particular Suella Braverman.” “Shame on them.” @jonsopel sits down with Lib Dem MP @LaylaMoran. Coming to @GlobalPlayer

Spoke to a 25 yr old guy today. He became a tech VP at 25 by: 1. Waking up at 5 AM 2. Cold showers 3. Meditating 4. Intermittent fasting 5. His dad owns the company
