NEVER let anyone tell you that you can't!!! I'm often told "but you shouldn't...", "but you aren't allowed...", "it's not recommended..." Do what makes you feel alive and what to keep going and pushing forwards. Otherwise, what is there? Well done #Hasan #Olympics #Pari
5000m 🥉 10,000m 🥉 Marathon 🥇 WHAT AN OLYMPICS FOR SIFAN HASSAN 🤯 #Paris2024 #Olympics

Sadly, some staff are reporting an increase in racial abuse and hostility from a small minority of our patients. We're taking action to help make sure they are safe in the line of duty 🔽 1/2
