"Given the evidence on climate change and its health impacts, we strongly believe peaceful protest should not be viewed as condemnable professional misconduct – but as commendable public health advocacy." Our statement on the MPTS case of Dr Sarah Benn dauk.org/news/2024/04/1…

The lovely cycling doctors of Ride for Their Lives are at it again! Now through Birmingham with health workers and children - for clean air, healthy lungs & cooler planet. Seems they will cycle Paris-Geneva for the World Health Assembly. If you want to join - ⁦@RideLives⁩

A brighter future is knowing when to use your voice as a paediatrician and when you need to listen to those children and young people in front of you - powerful opening to #RCPCH24 from @RCPCH_and_Us

@HeadSmartFellow @bernieaohare @alison_firth Hugely excited to hear from you :)

Join us on Monday at the Climate Change Working Group session @ 14:30 in Hall 1. We will be presenting our work on the impact of climate change on our global child health colleagues, understanding the effect on CYP & health services. #RCPCH24 @bernieaohare @alison_firth

Starting my first #RFTL today. If everyone cycled more we’d burn less fossil fuels, all be fitter and our air be cleaner. #tripplewin @RCPCHtweets @RideLives

Dear @RishiSunak, I just signed this open letter in response to your plans to build new gas-fired power plants in the UK. We need mass investment in green, home-grown renewables - not expensive gas. act.350.org/letter/open-le…

A little cold, windy #InternationalWomensDay ride (York-Easingwold-Haxby-York) with @AllisonCowling_ @KatyRosePEM @MariaMarcolin2 - I couldn’t keep up! Great lunch stop. #saddlesore @RideLives

Make polluters pay for rising energy bills. We need a proper #WindfallTax: act.350.org/s/2548092.7S1q…

All Gazans are already at risk of starving – but the US and other big donors still FROZE funding for #UNRWA, the UN agency providing most of the aid in Gaza. Demand funding is restored now: secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/sa…

"Children have a right to clean air, and we must fight for it to become a reality." We've responded to the Mayor of London's introduction of air quality alerts for health professionals in London: rcpch.ac.uk/news-events/ne…

By ending fossil fuel subsidies & taxing enormous energy company profits we can ensure every household in the UK has clean, green energy at a fair price.  Email your MP now to urge them to sign the Energy For All manifesto. nwmd.io/s/twitter/ZxA4…

This is urgent - join me emailing MPs ahead of crucial Gaza #CeasefireNOW vote next week. Put pressure on parliament using @PSCupdates online action palestinecampaign.eaction.online/voteforceasefi…

@mhdksafa Yes

Let the world speak: Do you support an immediate ceasefire in Gaza? Please. Just yes or no.

paediatricfoam.com/2023/12/lgbtq-… Must encourage everyone to read this excellent advice from the @PaediatricFOAM team about creating inclusive environments for LGBQT+ patients and parents. Thanks @ilana_abc and colleagues.

The UK Government has announced plans to ban disposable e-cigarettes in the UK! Single use vapes are the most popular used device among young people in the UK and 5 million discarded each week – a ban is a win for children’s health and the planet. 1/3

It's fantastic to have you join the team @emilyrparker ! @DrHClements @ZRaffeeq @g_bickerton @ninawren @CleanAirFund @RCPCHtweets rcpch.ac.uk/news-events/ne…

Too often the needs of children & young people are forgotten in policy making. We’re proud to support #ChildrenAtTheTable, calling on the next Government to be a champion of children's health and wellbeing. Sign the petition: childrenatthetable.org.uk

Dismayed to see that @Mark_Spencer MP has approved the use of banned Neonics on local sugar crops. A nod to the profits of the sugar industry and ignores the scientific evidence re their harm and the obesity crisis fuelled by cheap sugary foods.increasing health inequalities.
