We are short by 330 OTs per million people in higher income countries @thewfot . This is why community rehabilitation is a priority area for growth @theRCOT . We must address equitably this unmet need.

Now the Local Government Finance Settlement has been published, I'm going to write a mega-thread on the status of individual local authorities. 1. Havering Council is "on the brink" of a Section 114. It now receives less than £2 million, down from £70 million in 2010-11.
