Three years on from his passing, we remember Bill Turnbull - a truly remarkable man. Through his openness about #ProstateCancer, Bill inspired so many men to check their risk and get an early diagnosis. The impact of his words continues to save lives. Thank you, Bill 💙

There is no easy way to ‘do’ Stage IV cancer. There is the slashing, the poisoning, the burning, the off the scale pain, the fear, the fatigue, the sickness, the lymphoedema, the brain fog, the sleeplessness, the weight loss, the identity loss, the job loss, the nerve damage, the late-effects, the infections, the choking, the scanxiety, the financial toxicity, the frustration, the anger, the alienation, the vulnerability, the blood, the sweat and the tears. And then some. This is just a sample of what to expect. There are no shortcuts, and so to get through it, you have to go through it. But if you can summon up the strength, navigate a path with grace and a smile, you can emerge a better person.

Letting your garden go a little bit wild is a brilliant thing to do for British wildlife like #hedgehogs! 🦔 Think leaves, logs, & letting the grass grow long with wildflowers & weeds! 🌼 🍂 🌾 #WildlifeWednesday

🚫DON’T VISIT #LION CAFÉS OR TAKE PHOTO PROP PICTURES🚫Behind every big #cat interaction is cruelty: painful declawing, poor living conditions & uncertain futures. These #animals are bred for profit, then discarded when they outgrow photo ops. #EthicalTourism #ProtectWildlife

A 'cheap' hedgehog house is like buying cheap washing up liquid or cheap bin liners - a false economy. You can't rely on them because they haven't been designed properly. A hedgehog house isn't just a wooden box; the ventilation and air flow needs to be just right, and the bed chamber size and interior dimensions are critical. Most are a complete waste of money - nice to look at but too small and rot quickly. So it's best to either make your own temporary houses (see below) which will last a season, or designate a sheltered area in your garden and supply materials, so the hedgehogs can build their own, or buy a proper house that will last years and years with zero maintenance.

If you're over 45 and your father or brother has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, you may want to talk to your GP. This is because your risk of hereditary disease may be higher. #ProstateCancer l #MensHealth

As it's Friday, I'm asking all my followers to please retweet this tweet if you see it, to help my little bird account beat the algorithm & be seen!🙏♥️ To make it worth sharing, here's the adorable face of a Long Tailed Tit! 😍😊🐦 #FridayRetweetPlease ♥️

@TheRedQueen_Bee Oh they are 😋

With the forecast of subzero temperatures at night for the next week or so, it's critically important that hedgehogs rising for a top-up find food and fresh water. We've destroyed their natural food so please help these sweet gentle animals survive the winter by providing some dry kitten/cat food. Water can be kept ice free by following the advice in this link👉x.com/HedgehogCabin/… And food can be protected from rain, mice, rats, slugs and cats with a simple saucer (see below). If you don't have one, ask your mum or nan (or look in a charity shop). A saucer works in 2 ways - to slugs and rodents it's a physical barrier. To cats it's a trick of the eye. Cats hunt by sight, so when they see an empty dish, even when it smells of food, they believe their eyes, rather than their sense of smell.😊

Many of you will have found the hedgehog's water frozen this morning. It's so important that they have access to ice free water - dehydration is just as dangerous in the winter months as it is in the summer months. If you haven't got a water heater (Google 'poultry water heater')

Ten steps you can take to dramatically improve your health for a new year... Walk, walk and walk some more - a massively underrated form of exercise, free and accessible. A dog can help as your trainer! You are what you eat - reduce fatty foods and red meat, increase fibre and fruit/vegetables. Ignore the outrageous hyperbole about 'ultra-processed' food - enjoy an occasional treat, but keep it balanced. A bag of crisps or slice of pizza every now and again is not poison. Get your heart pumping and get sweating at least once a day - whether that's through a proper walk or something more challenging. The vast, vast majority of us can find the time to do so. It's a question of priorities. Alcohol in moderation - slow down and show some sense. Have at least a few days off a week, and if you do enjoy a slightly heavier evening remember to stay hydrated as you go. You'll thank me the next morning! Focus on what you can control - stress does horrible things to a body, it's a poison. Concentrate on changing the things within your power, past that it's not worth it! Smoking kills - it can cause cancer anywhere and it releases harmful chemicals into your body and the surrounding air. I have treated multiple heavy smokers for an entirely avoidable disease. Get checked - if you have any concerning symptoms, seek help. Be persistent and don't get fobbed off by rude receptionists. Safe sex - awkward to discuss, but important. If you have sex with multiple partners, take precautions by using barrier contraception. Certain sexually transmitted infections play a huge role in the development of cancer, especially for women. It can affect the ability to carry a child and give birth. Surround yourself with positivity - life's too short to spend it moaning. A positive mindset, from you and the company you keep, will do more good for your health than you realise... Limit your intake of negative news - what's the point? Educate yourself, but filling your life with doom-laden headlines from the usual outlets (the Guardian) desperately seeking clicks is a waste of time. One more... Enjoy yourself! When you've been around cancer for as long as I have, you learn to appreciate the small things in life. However you find joy, repeat and repeat again - it won't be there forever.
