Some highlights this week: 💙Talking about GM’s prevention-first approach @TheKingsFund Conf 🎂20th anniversary @transportwm ❤️@VCFSELeadersGM insights & action 💷Planning for GM Guaranteed Living Income & UBI pilots. 📕@sarasiobhan book launch & panel 🌱GM #CyanLines launched
So pleased to see this piece about my book in the @BylineTimes 'Why Are We Accepting State-Sanctioned Social Murder?' subscribe.bylinetimes.com/edition/78/why…
@LucyGoBag @LearningMet Parliament should be sanctioning LA’s whose care less LD Service closures, their ‘tightening’ of assessment / needs - and then commissioning - contracting cheapest agency support- and then not monitoring same- is adding to this.
@LucyGoBag @LearningMet Social work reduced to a short assessment glimpse- on site Day/respite Services- for many only in memory. Unskilled - non union - starvation pay- with no tenure- care staff. Who sees this, and who cares ? For people die from all this.
I would love to see more social care Profs go for/get this award. Do check eligibility cos I think it's for relatively new Profs. You can always get help from: nihr.ac.uk/support-and-se…

Thread re @sarasiobhan book launch. In the Q&A I asked what’d ‘tipped’ her into naming what was going on as ‘social murder’? Some folk will shrink from it, think it ‘distasteful’ or ‘excessive’? I hope people read the book and/or the accessible summary and decide for themselves.
