Connecting with us on social media

We use social media to keep people informed about our work, highlight sources of support and raise awareness of issues and events that may be of interest to our followers.

Getting clinical information and advice

If you require clinical information or advice, do not use our social media accounts but speak to your GP, care coordinator or another health professional.

We welcome engagement through social media, including mentions, likes, shares, comments and responses.

Our social media accounts are monitored between 9am and 5pm, Monday to Friday, and we will not generally respond to posts outside of those times.

Retweets, shares and following on social media

The social media accounts we follow do not imply endorsement of any kind. We follow accounts we believe are relevant to our work but do not necessarily agree with or approve of everything those organisations promote. Similarly, retweets and shares do not necessarily mean we endorse the content of those particular posts.
