    Proud of the mental health team we set up for staff, and the tiered evidence-based model established. Proud of the people I worked with and the compassionate care they delivered. Proud to have been part of #TeamNightingale @NightingaleLDN .

    This afternoon, unprompted, a consultant colleague offered to see some additional patients for a different team he knew was down medical cover due to #COVID19. Just the offer has me feeling so grateful - we will need each other in the coming days. #WeAreTheNHS

    I've never seen the Thames so calm. Not a ripple on the river; no boats to disturb it's peace.
