Dame Fiona Caldicott was laid to rest today. A life full of amazing achievement, first woman Dean and first woman President of @rcpsych, but what shone through was the love of her family. May she RIP. gov.uk/government/news/dame-…

As the UK enters lockdown 2.0, we're working harder than ever to develop the Oxford #Covid19 vaccine safely and as quickly as possible. How? Careful planning, extraordinary logistics and a whole lot of help: bit.ly/UOcovid-vaccine

As we go back into #lockdown, it’s right to be concerned about #mentalhealth & alert to the risks, wrong to frighten people with dire predictions, to quote evidence selectively, to claim mental health as cover for ideological opposition.
