    It’s with great sadness that I wish to announce my retirement from the NHS in March next year. Leading @RWT_NHS and @WalsallHcareNHS has been a true privilege and I want to thank all the staff, patients and partners who I’m so proud to have worked with.

    It is my view that the long-term impact of the COVID-19 crisis, both economically, socially and emotionally, could be felt by this country for a long time. Here is my message for #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #kindness

    I would like to share our condolences with Captain Sir Tom Moore’s family and friends at this very sad time.  Captain Tom was an incredible inspiration to us here at the Trust and we would like to pay tribute to his amazing spirit and outlook.

    I am delighted to announce this long-term partnership with Babylon. I am confident that this won’t be just good for our patients, it will benefit the wider NHS through early prevention, treatment and the sharing of our learning.
    We are delighted to announce we have partnered with @babylonhealth to create the world's first integrated digital health system. The app will allow patients to have greater control over their own health, faster treatment, fewer trips to hospital and treatment from their own home.
