We deeply regret the University of Chichester's decision to suspend recruitment to two important history programmes, the unique MRes in the History of Africa and the African Diaspora and the BA Modern History. Find out more here: socialhistory.org.uk/2023/08/03/cut…

Analysing the surveys from this joint project, and there's something so emotional and quietly devastating about all the little hearts and smiley faces in the margins, next to the desperate concerns about the future of the NHS and bleak conditions staff work under.

Did you know that Elizabeth Blackwell was the first woman on the Medical Register for the UK? Featuring figures linked to the NHS, this celebratory card is being used to collect stories @uhbwNHS as part of the @ournhstories project. #artsandhealth #hospitalarts #TeamUHBW

AI and Self-Service Technology are the latest chapters in the age-old battle between Humans and Mechanisation. The image below is from a 1936 pamphlet found among the archives of the TGWU.

Let's STOP reinventing the wheel expensively and destructively, demoralising NHS staff and all of us who depend on them!

And these are, or could and should be the laboratories we need to health policy making: this is where we can see what generations of smart, expert, and compassionate health workers of all kinds have tried in the past AND discover whether their strategies worked!

Librarians and archivists across the country make projects like the People's History of the NHS possible! From fab traditional sources like these to the @britishlibrary where @NHSat70's amazing collection lives, to @lhseul and the NHS workers' treasure trove @MRCWarwick --
Crichton Royal Heritage@Crichton_Royal

The Crichton Archives, owned by the NHS and cared for by @DumGalLibraries, tells so many stories. These images are some of the earliest in the collection, shedding light on the foundation of the Asylum, its patients, and their lives @NHSHistory_

@sexhistorian And a great thing it is too: wild women, well-outside of the M25, NHS workers and workings, plus, best of ALL!!: truly terrible primary source puns. How could we resist?

It's publication day for OUR NHS. Thanks to my family, friends, colleagues, and the wonderful team at Yale who supported me over the many years of writing my first book. Available in all good bookshops!
