The story of our journey to justice for Alice, captured so eloquently here by @jamesmelley & @AlisonHoltBBC, who followed what was a marathon trial at the Old Bailey, with all its twists & turns. Originally scheduled for 9 weeks, it lasted over 7 months:

After losing best pal Rob to suicide, Dean turned grief into something extraordinary
A global kindness movement
It started with 1 empty chair + 1 orange hoodie
Now it's spread around the world
Kindness, connection + belonging on @BBCBreakfast tomorrow

We are 11 days from the 11th anniversary of Aliceās death. Iāve remembered it was today that Alice had her one overnight stay at home during 5 months on the deathtrap ward from hell where she died. I could never have imagined that would be her last time at home with us, ever šš
Disgraceful yet typical. NELFT: the Trust that blew Ā£5m to get away with manslaughter for Aliceās death. Still having the effrontery to claim āBest care by the best peopleā as they did on letterheads when we were newly bereaved. Still employing their criminally convicted manager.
Fed up. Just spent 14 weeks at @nottsinquiry didnāt miss a minute as this was all I could do in my daughter Graceās name against all those who failed.
Get to my desk and this is what Iām greeted withā¦ā¦

āBest care by the best peopleā sitting rather starkly above a letter that reads as: āhot potato passed onā.
Box ticked, discharge initiated, collapse in care begins, and with it the disengagement and despair.

Psychiatry as a professionā¦..you will not learn till thereās accountability and dismissal.
Can the failing Psychiatrists from the Nottingham Inquiry be dismissed asap.
Can we make an example of them to improve standardsā¦.nowā¦letās not wait for the conclusions.
Our country needs to be in safe hands now and we donāt have time to wait for another disaster.
I would like a call from @jamesmurray_ldn your private sec has my number.
Letās get rid of terrible Psychiatrists and shine a light on the good services.

This morning a song Alice sang on the phone to me from hospital a few days before she died, came on in the hotel where weāre staying. I had to walk away, as I always do when this song takes me off guard. But still, I felt her presence draw close to me on this Easter Sunday š¼šš
When Alice was readmitted in Feb 2015 she asked a staff member sheād known for 3 years: āDo you think I can get better?ā. They said āNoā. Alice then asked: āHave you given up on me?ā Their reply: āYesā. MH staff should think very carefully about choosing words to heal not harm.š§µ
A person whose role was to provide care & safety, told a depressed patient at risk they didnāt think she would get better & theyād given up on her. Deep damage is done to a patient in such a vulnerable state, if those meant to care for them extinguish any small flame of hope šŖ.

š§µ For someone offering āpeer supportā this is a ridiculously paternalistic view: clinicians confer privately, reach a conclusion alone, & then inform the patient who they are. How delightfully mid-century. Are you also advocating for the reopening of asylums? Lobotomies? š¤ 1/31

"A dangerous culture harbouring a lack of care"-a coroner's description of a mental health ward where a 20-yr-old woman died. @jamesmelley & I have been looking at 3 sudden deaths at the private hospital. It says it's made improvements.
Three women died unexpectedly in two years at a privately run mental health hospital where staff falsified records @AlisonHoltBBC

My heart goes out to any women, who like Alice, instead of receiving diligent compassionate care, ever had to endure callous antipathy, heartless contempt, abuse, neglect or were made to feel in any way worthless, intimidated or dehumanised whilst being patients on this ward: 1/4

This is a scandalous, shameless travesty, devoid of accountability. & the Trust should be ashamed of their gaslighting, blame-shifting conduct through recent trial proceedings. The message this sends is the life & death of a 22 yr old MH patient is inconsequential to them. 3/4
