I'm at the HEE educators conference today and will tweet what I can. First off, really interesting data on poor numeracy in medical students and foundation Dr's. Thread.

Thanks. We are really excited too!

Great to welcome @bodgoddard & team from the RCP to Walsall yesterday. He reminded us that happy, rested trainees make better doctors. Lovely to see smiling trainees and trainers talking to him. #Walsallandproud @WalsallHcareNHS

Yesterday @RCollEM Training Standards Committee agreed minimum SPA time for trainees. We are very grateful to the TSC for continuing to drive better training. Well done to all trainees, reps and trainers who work so hard on these improvements #Proud2bEM bit.ly/2OiAnf2
