With great thanks to Catherine Reilly & Medical Independent in relation to the "urgent' need for the #Valproate Stakeholder Group in Ireland. We believe along with our colleagues in Epilepsy Ireland that a stakeholder group should not be under "consideration" it should be developed. #FVSD

When you’re sitting next to 95-year-old Sir David Attenborough and you *still* can’t be arsed to wear a mask. Or even stay awake. #COP26

Furthermore ……. a quick perusal of the lyrics of all 10 of the tracks spread over the 37 minutes and 9 seconds of their new “Voyage” album, reveals that #Kilkenny is the only place - repeat: only place - mentioned in any of the songs!!!!

Dear Media It's not just teachers who are getting sick because of covid. SNAs and other school staff are too. There are 17,000 SNAs. #RespectForSNAs

SNAs are a highly skilled & hugely committed group of workers making a vital difference in the lives of young people. Unsung heroes that deserve real recognition & total respect. Fair play Fórsa activists for getting #RespectForSNAs firmly on the agenda. Very inspiring work. ✊

Earlier today, Minister @DonnellyStephen received Government approval to establish a non-statutory inquiry into the historical licensing & prescribing of Sodium Valproate in Ireland. This is a welcome development and you can read our & OACS IRELAND's reaction on our website.

We have been liaising with BBC File On 4 for many months on this programme. We look forward to the outcome. File on 4 asks if the health #regulators in the UK and the company who make it, #Sanofi, did enough to inform patients of the severity of the drug's risks soon enough.
