We also say farewell to three of our outstanding Trustees; Lindsay Foster, Gideon Hoffman and Claire Bailey. Alongside others, they helped to navigate RNID through major change and played a big role in setting our new strategy. A huge thank you from all of us at RNID! 💚 (2/2)

We will get more details today and tomorrow of the Government's actions and I expect it to be forthright in acknowledging wrongs, and acting to put them right.

Annie, from Norwich, now deceased, was in my mind and I hope that her family may get some peace and justice from today's final inquiry chapter. I shall stay on the case of the remaining steps that need to be taken in Parliament to legislate for and implement the scheme.

Several families in our area have been brutally affected and have spoken out. I have worked as their MP to help where I can.
