The Faculty has been working to better define, promote and protect GPs working in extended roles in MSK medicine settings, and is delighted to announce the pilot launch for the GPwER in MSK accreditation programme. The pilot launches soon ⬇️ fsem.ac.uk/news/gpwer-in-…

This is hugely exciting, it’s been a passion to get this to the point of delivery, creating a pathway for GPs who aspire to having a career in MSK Medicine. Huge thanks to everyone involved @FSEM_UK and especially @cjtdoc @DrLucyDouglas and Dr Anna-Louise Mackinnon

@billybragg @jk_rowling Perhaps reflect on the extremists on ‘your side’ and the fact that most who disagree with you on this subject are from the left. This guilt by association is cheap point scoring

I can understand why the likes of @jk_rowling might want to shut down any suggestion that the gender critical movement is rife with right wing bigotry, but the evidence is clear for all to see. This example turned up in my thread today. Check the username

As Dr Chris Tomlinson demits as Vice-President after four years, we would like to thank Chris for the enormous impact and strategic vision, particularly with regards to MSK Medicine agenda and in particular the development of the Diploma in MSK Medicine exam.

Brave, brilliant women. Hugely deserved 🙌

@guygavrielkay Have you seen the film? It’s beautiful

Just finished J. L. Carr's *A Month in the Country* and am still in the spell of this slight, genuinely splendid novel set in an English hamlet just after the Great War. I won’t say too much, but consider this a strong recommendation from me.
