It breaks my heart that the country’s nurses have been driven to this. I will stand by them with every fibre of my being. You cannot deliver world class healthcare on pitifully paid NHS toil @RishiSunak @Jeremy_Hunt. Pay.Nurses. What. They. Deserve. theguardian.com/uk-news/2022… – at Oxford, England

I usually see deficit focused models of neurodiversity, stumbled across this and wanted to share. Don’t forget that you have a learning difference, and difference comes with strengths too. #learningdifference #Neurodiversity
