In March, local resident Paul got Covid. He was hospitalised, suffered strokes, and has still not gone back to work. Help fight Covid by keeping 2m away from others not in your household, wash your hands for 20 seconds, and wear a face covering over your nose and mouth in public

We are proud to confirm that we will host an event - alongside London hospitals - to support children and young people living with sickle cell. 💙 Find out more 👇

So great to be working together again Sumit! And fantastic to be hosting this Sickle Cell event for children, teenagers and their families with friends and colleagues across NCL on behalf of UCLH @NorthMidNHS Whittington Health NHS Trust Sickle Cell Society Emma Drašar Sara Trompeter #sicklecell

I recently visited the sickle cell service at Whittington Health NHS Trust, and Stephanie told me what it felt like to have a sickle cell crisis and her experience of seeking help. She said the way she was treated had made her put off seeking help when she needed it most, and this has to change.

Whittington Health NHS Trust This #SickleCellAwarenessDay I’m proud to launch a new campaign to raise awareness of the symptoms of a sickle cell crisis — to improve care for people like Stephanie. NHS colleagues, please do read more about this campaign, and start using the resources. e-lfh.org.uk/programmes/hea…

The grass pollen is HIGH!🌾 If you have #asthma…not treating your allergic rhinitis or hay fever symptoms adequately can lead to worsening of asthma symptoms and increases the risk of a sudden asthma attack-think inflamed upper airways with mucous dripping down! 👃🏻💧🫁 #allergy
