Brilliant day! @Northampparkrun hot and happy - thank you to the volunteers. Quick stroll around the cultural quarter of Northampton which today resembled France and then 2 hours of walking football in Solihull with my tribe @PDPioneers
Spot on, as a general ambition not much anyone wouldn’t like in it, apart from the recognition that neurology & Parkinson’s are NOT “general” & start from an impossibly low baseline . I would also reflect that an ambition without a plan & treasury support is challenging
It’s great progress but how are you going to get past the fact that @wesstreeting is focussed on widespread system change and not just one condition. Do you need to widen to include all of neurology?
