It's been great having Mark Wilberforce with us at HSCWRU for the past two months. A fantastic social care researcher with a lot to learn from. Although I'm not sure the impression we've given Mark was equally as impressive...(as suggested by his AI depiction of his time with us)

Enormous thanks to HSCWRU and in particular Monica Leverton and Annette Boaz for hosting me on my NIHR School for Social Care Research leadership award. Learned an enormous amount from a talented group - and a great environment for me to reflect on social care research. Right. Back up north....

Our next Home Care Research Forum is on Weds 8th May, 2-4pm. The event is online and free to attend. Talks focus on 1) experiences of receiving homecare for the first time, & 2) technologies in homecare To book your place, please register via Eventbrite: eventbrite.co.uk/e/home-care-re…

Hospital discharge - a new report from Homecare Association on the experiences of homecare providers & the people they support. Despite guidance, funding and a national taskforce, many ICSs are not getting the basics right. We recommend ways to improve. homecareassociation.org.uk/resource/homec…

The good news: once you get a PhD, friends and family will refer to you as doctor. The bad news: They will only do it sarcastically after you get basic trivia wrong.
