She’s an absolute smokeshow, and she settled for Jake Paul.😖

Women’s health hubs put women at the centre of care.
Joined-up services mean faster support, shorter waiting lists, fewer barriers, and better health outcomes - across every stage of life.
I asked the government what they are doing to ensure all women can access them 👇

This week, we were pleased to work with @liz_sugg to ask the Government about their commitment to Women’s Health Hubs in the renewed Women’s Health Strategy. Read the RCOG’s priorities for the strategy: brnw.ch/21wYuYJ

Such sudden and tragic news. Helen was an incredible champion for victims of crime, and contributed to the House of Lords in so many ways.
She achieved a huge amount & was always so kind and generous - in their loss her family can be proud of such a legacy.
Rest in Peace Helen x

Desperately sad to hear that Helen Newlove has died. Helen was so wonderful, warm, brave and plain speaking. She suffered the tragedy of watching her beloved husband, Garry, being murdered by thugs - and then turned that experience into a second life of service. Service to her community, to the country and to Parliament - but, most of all, service to victims of crime to make sure they got a proper hearing and a better deal. It was a privilege to meet her and an honour to help her into a position where she could dedicate herself to the service of others. My thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with Helen’s husband, Paul, and her daughters, Zoe, Danielle and Amy. Helen leaves a legacy that they - and we all - can be proud of.

On this #dayofthegirl I’m thinking of the 12 million girls forced into marriage every year and the 129 million girls that still remain out of school. A fairer world for girls is a fairer world for us all. @PlanUK

On International Day of the Girl, as @PlanUK says: progress that generations have fought so hard for is under threat, and we cannot allow girls’ futures to be pushed backwards.

Gender equality in the UK and around the world is stalling and in some cases, reversing. Who will stand with girls to protect their hard-fought rights? Because with some amazing celebrities, we're backing girls. 💙 standard.co.uk/news/uk/sarina… @theLDNstandard

Great to see such a significant contribution from @gatesfoundation to @GlobalFund’s lifesaving work on HIV, TB and malaria 👏
Malaria No More UK@malarianomoreuk
The @GatesFoundation’s inspiring $912m pledge to the @GlobalFund is a huge boost in the fight against HIV, TB & malaria. An institution that has saved 70m+ lives. Fully funding it means protecting lives, livelihoods and economies. #ZeroMalaria #StopAtNothing

As @PlanUK says: “Finally publishing this guidance would send an important message that the government recognises and cares about the toll of harassment on the wellbeing and safety of women and girls. Until this happens, women and girls across the UK are being failed.”

Almost 1.5 million women are thought to have been accosted since the Protection from Sex-based Harassment in Public Act passed in September 2023 The guidance for police & prosecutors on how to enforce it has not yet been issued - this needs to happen asap thetimes.com/uk/crime/artic…

And @petercardwell’s book tells the story of political animals from Tudor times to the latest usurper. My heart will always be with @Number10cat but I’ll enjoy the other stories too - buy it here - bitebackpublishing.com/books/politica…

Amy Gray’s book Red Duchess tells the story of Kitty Atholl, a pioneering British female politician who was full of contradictions - a trailblazer who refused to play by the rules.
I’m looking forward to learning more about her. You can buy it here - thehistorypress.co.uk/publication/re…

It’s been quite something to attend two book launches in two days written by my very clever friends Amy Gray and @petercardwell
Well done to both of them for putting pen to paper and getting published, a truly brilliant achievement that I am in awe of 👏

Great to see the appointment of @dienekeita as the new @UNFPA Executive Director 👏
Diene is a brilliant champion for sexual and reproductive health and rights, just what we need in these challenging times

These practices are another reason that we need a legal definition of honour based abuse, so these crimes can be recorded and investigated accurately, so we can support survivors, and so authorities get a true picture of the scale of the problem 2/2

Virginity testing and hymenoplasty were made illegal in 2022.

It was great to share a platform with Neisha, one of the members of @PlanUK’s Youth Advisory Panel.
She did an excellent job sharing her perspective on the importance of reproductive rights for young people, and reminded us all that we need to hear their voices at the table 2/2
Plan International UK@PlanUK
Proud of our YAP member Neisha, who is advocating for reproductive agency for young people. Young leaders aren’t just speaking up about SRHR, they are pushing for action! 💪

Wrapping up the UK launch of @UNFPA's 2025 State of World Population report, I highlighted the importance of maintaining a clear focus on sexual and reproductive health and rights.
When women have reproductive agency they help change the world for the better 1/2

As declines in fertility rates make headlines, women + young people are often blamed for demographic shifts. This week in parliament we discussed the real fertility crisis - a lack of reproductive agency. @SarahChampionMP @meralhece @LeighInghamMP @FCDOGH @APPGGlobalSRHR

There are 150 million more women and girls who are hungrier than men and boys.
