'To come away with fourth is so bittersweet. I'll probably have a wee bit of a cry.

'But many years ago I wouldn't have dreamt of fourth in the world.

'I just know that I have it, it's there. Another year to Olympics.'

- Ciara Mageean. 💚

Deep thanks to all who voted for me. It was an honour to be nominated by Council & run for RCPsych President. I'm thrilled Lade Smith CBE won. She'll be great! We became friends through the campaign & I look forward to working with her to keep compassion at the heart of all we do.

We should stop using suicide risk asst tools. Evidence clear, most agree.

Why do they persist? Defensive practice, form-filling culture.

What to do instead? Individual approach to safety, skilled, collaborative, involving family.
