@Cirno_The_9 @jet2tweets Apparently it’s an operational fault with no timescale of fix, pilot is no longer coming to talk as they won’t say anything different to what the staff are saying 🙁

@bethmSLT @jet2tweets You might have better luck DMing them, they can't talk to me as I'm not on the flight, absolute joke of a company.

@jet2tweets Any idea what's happening with LS1288 PMI - BHX? Sister tells me they were boarding the plane and now have all been forced to deboard with zero info given as to when they will actually depart.

@Cirno_The_9 @jet2tweets Did you happen to get any reply from them? We are sat like lemons also waiting for this flight with no update from staff for hours

@jet2tweets Yes we'd like to know why her flight still hasn't left after a 3 hour (and counting) delay and staff still have not explained what the delay is and when they'll actually be boarding to take off?

@jackcpk3 Do you still have these? 🙂

Some people might be asking, Why is #speechtherapy so important? When you next open your mouth to speak, use your hands to gesture, text/tweet, remember that so many people cannot. Access to SLT is their lifeline. We need the government to #InvestInSLT petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6579…

In December 2023, 72,185 children were waiting for speech and language therapy support. Over 21,000 were waiting 18+ weeks, with over 4,000 waiting a year or more. We need change. Please sign @MikeysWish_VDA's petition & ask the Govt to #InvestInSLT ⬇️ petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6579…

Only 30 signatures now to get us to 5,000 - half way to a Government response. 🎉 If you haven't already, would you please sign and share @MikeysWish_VDA #InvestInSLT petition? If you have signed, can you ask a family member, friend or work colleague to do the same? ✍🏿✍️✍🏼

Absolutely heartbreaking for the families involved. IVF is gruelling, emotionally and physically draining, and overwhelming; let alone when something like this happens. My thoughts are with those affected.

9 years ago, I had a dream that every person who had lost a baby before 24 weeks gestation would be able to get an official government-issued certificate to formally acknowledge their loss, and today, those certificates are happening. Whatever the gestation, whether a parent has tragically lost their baby at one day into pregnancy or 23 weeks and six days, they can apply. Whether the loss happens at any point in the future or any point in the past, you can apply. No one will miss out; your loss, your pain, your grief are finally being recognised. To avoid the application site from crashing, we are asking people to form an orderly queue, and if the English are good at anything, it’s queuing. So to start with, if those who have had a loss since September 2018 can apply first, and the government will then open it up to everyone else as soon as possible, this does mean some of us (including me) need to be patient a little longer. To answer a few questions: You don’t need medical proof of a loss. This is for everyone, whatever type of loss they may have experienced, whether it be a loss from miscarriage, ectopic, molar, TFMR or for another reason. This certificate is for anyone who has lost a baby before 24 weeks gestation, whether the loss was today or 90 years ago. Your loss needs to have taken place in England, and you need to currently live in England to apply. We want to thank Dame Floella Benjamin @FloellaBenjamin for believing in us and our mission; your joining with us as a charity helped make this a reality. We would also like to thank all our ambassadors for joining their voices with ours to ensure we were heard. @SayingGoodbyeUK 6 years ago, Sam and I were asked to co-chair and author one of the world's first baby loss reviews for under 24 weeks gestation. We were tasked with looking into all clinical care and bereavement support, and part of that was also to bring in the new certification process. Last summer, we laid that report in Parliament, and the government accepted all 73 of its national recommendations. Today is a landmark day because one of those 73 is coming to pass - certificates are now here! We hope you are as excited as us; please help us spread the word.

Two million children need speech and language therapy - The Times reports today.

Once again a report is highlighting how vital SLT is yet we are constantly underfunded. Early intervention services that have been shut down as a result of funding will have also had a significant impact
