She was on holiday. A time when you’re meant to relax and have fun. She wasn’t dancing while supposedly working during a lockdown because of a pandemic that took thousands of lives. That would be wrong now wouldn’t it?

I remember when the Head of the Sixth Form College that I attended in Leeds, England asked my what wanted to study at university. I replied it was always my dream to become a doctor. She laughed in my face & said that medical school is too competitive, I’ll never get in & to choose another course. She made me feel like I was a ‘dirty little immigrant with delusions of grandeur’. Being the sensitive soul that I am, her words hurts me. Her words hurt me a lot. But I refused to allow her to diminish my determination. Being an independent 18 year old student who was forced to leave my parents behind in Lebanon, I had to work 40 hours a week to survive. This was a constant threat to getting the necessary grades to secure a place in medical school. However, the suffering, struggling, sacrifices and hard work paid off. Not only did I get into medical school in Manchester, I later qualified as a doctor, became a Consultant NHS Psychiatrist, an Honorary Visiting Professor and book author. I’m in the Waterstones in Leeds to see a copy of my book for the first time. I’m sorry, I couldn’t hold back the emotions. Please NEVER stop believing in yourself & NEVER give up hope. My book is available to order: Breakthrough: A Story of Hope, Resilience and Mental Health Recovery amzn.eu/d/85sQTvl

4 years ago I did this newsnight interview to raise awareness around children in care being placed in dangerous houses, unregulated accommodation, squalor, bedsits. Young people 15+ left to defend for themselves in a house where you're expected to be independent!! In 2024 and we're still here. We have a care review with a list of recommendations to protect and prevent, and its still sitting on a bookshelf in Parliament collecting dust. Not good enough. #changeiscoming

Our #ConservationWin was when we went through all our packaging objects to remove the food contained in them. Apart from this one. This one we missed. #Archive30

Oh how the tables turn! When I was 16, I came home to a letter on the kitchen table from my foster carer. It said I had four days to find somewhere else to live. Today, the book in which I write about this experience is pictured here on my own kitchen table. And it is OUT TODAY.

We lost our carers allowance this year because we were earning £20 over the earning limit of £139 a week. That means cutting back on food & other essentials, for us & our Disabled daughter. We are not alone in this as a family. Meanwhile those who perpetuated this misery ..👇

Please watch the whole video from @shelter 🤍139,000 children are homeless right now I remember when I was 9 and Mum ran away with me. We stayed in a B&B in Leicester for a while, in a bedroom with a smashed window, while my sister worked with Billy Smart's Circus which was in the city at the time. It was very cold at night but we cuddled up. Then we ran to Windsor to stay with some nice people. I went to school for one day only and said I wouldn't go back again. Eventually we went back home to North Wales. I was Maddy (in Shelter's video) for a while, but I was one of the lucky ones in the end 🤍 It was a long, long time ago but those things never really leave you. Thank you Shelter for all the work you do 🙏🏼
