Today is the feast day of St Mungo who is the patron saint and founder of the City of Glasgow. One of Glasgow’s best-known murals, by street artist Smug, depicts a modern-day St Mungo which references the story of The Bird That Never Flew #glasgow #stmungo #sunset #art #Scotland

Fantastic two day trustee offsite session, a rare gift of in-person connection. Great alignment around our ambition for people with #Migraine. So lucky to work with such an engaged group, no egos, just focussed on being the best to effect positive change. @MigraineTrust

Migraine affects over 1 billion globally! Exciting advances in understanding its molecular mechanisms have led to new treatments targeting #CGRP. This marks a significant step in #migraine management and opens doors for more innovative therapies 🧠💊🔬👇shorturl.at/elMQS

Last week we held our second parliamentary event, this time in Scotland. Thank you to @jackiebmsp, a spokesperson for her party on health issues, and @Jackson_Carlaw, who has spoken about his past experiences with chronic migraine, for sponsoring the event.

Met James back in 2013 after Benjamins inquest along with @WillStewNeuro James just got it re the importance of messaging and it’s not a coincidence that @Scotlandteam and @MurrayfieldStad lead the way in promoting this life saving message. Thank you Dr James Robson MBE 🙏

Recent poster at the @ihs_official conference: The comorbidity between migraine, depression, fibromyalgia and insomnia is huge. Might they have a common root cause? I believe they all have a degree of malfunctioning metabolism. Fixing that might help them all.

Great conversations at our #Migraine patient advocate event @ScotParl last night. Thanks to @Jackson_Carlaw for sponsoring. Eleanor’s speech about the impact migraine has had on her life, work & the inequitous challenge to access treatments was so powerful. @MigraineTrust
