Repairing damaged walking aids is a key element of very successful Community Payback project in Cardiff. The partnership with @CV_UHB has been in place for 8 years saving the health board both money and invaluable time of health professionals.

As the country & @hmpps face a wave of Omicron infections, I’ve written to families of those in prison to reassure them & ask for their help in keeping their loved ones safe, as we do everything we can to look after them. More info for families at: prisonersfamilies.org.
