“VIGGO MORTENSEN IS OPEN TO RETURNING AS ARAGORN”

This.

Happy final week of Tory rule to all who celebrate!

“Legacy is not leaving something for people, it's leaving something in people.” Today we remember the one and only Dr Kate Granger who died on this day in 2016. Kate’s powerful #HelloMyNameIs campaign inspired thousands across the NHS having a huge impact on patients and staff.

🚨 BREAKING: Wow. This heart-rending ad, when tested, moves swing-state men 2.5 points away from Trump. Massive. Please share everywhere. Women are dying NOW in states with extreme bans. If Republicans win, a national abortion ban is next. Don't look away. #MAGAAbortionBan

MBRRACE has published its perinatal mortality data for 2023. This includes stillbirths & neonatal deaths, broken down by NHS Trust/health board. And with a backdrop of national failure, unsafe care, and avoidable deaths, one Trust stands out - Leeds. timms.le.ac.uk/mbrrace-uk-per…
