MBE, Very proud to be a past UKONS President. Also Macmillan Lead Cancer Nurse, Nurse Consultant, cyclist, fencer and music enthusiast.
Sadly, the time has come to move out of X/Twitter. I don't like the culture and I don't like the boss. I will gradually move to @mfoulkes.bsky.social. Come and see me over there.
Short video from our celebration of #NationalCancerCNSDay @RBNHSFT @UKONSmember @macmillancancer @MerryTea
So.....this is me two weeks ago picking up my MBE for 'services to nursing'. I need to say that my time as a CNS in Head and Neck Cancers and in brain tumours was the defining role in my career. Happy #NationalCancerCNSDay @UKONSmember @CancerLead @macmillancancer
Me in 1993 as a staff nurse on oncology ward at Charing Cross Hospital, @ImperialNHS London, UK. I already knew my career would be in cancer care. I would later become a CNS Head and Neck Cancer. @UKONSmember @CancerLead #NationalCancerCNSDay
