Great to see so many famous faces supporting our call for real change for people affected by cancer in the upcoming national cancer plan for England. #turningpointforcancer
The best charity-talent partnerships aren’t just about reach — they’re about real connection
When someone truly believes in the cause, their audience feels it too.
Authenticity is the real influence ✨

Incredible - Zelenskyy will go down as one of the strongest leaders in living history.
The harsh reality I have to live with is that my dad might still be alive if he had visited the doctor sooner.
It’s been 8 years since he died from bowel cancer at just 46.
If you notice changes in your bowel habits or blood in your stool, please see a doctor. I wish my dad had. 💔 #bowelcancer
Happy birthday Shaun 🎈

Great to meet you today @peterstefanovic.bsky.social - thank you for support!
World Cancer Day 2025. 🤩
I had the privilege of spending the evening with some of the most inspiring scientists, supporters, and staff in the historic setting of the UK House of Lords.
I can't quite believe that this is actually my ‘job’.
As I prepare to move into the Head of Talent and Influencers, I want to connect/follow talent managers, agents, industry experts, and people working in a similar field. Recommendations welcome, please 🙏

Had a great evening last night at the Emeralds & Ivy ball put on by the fabulous Ronan Keating & Storm Keating in the spectacular surroundings of Raffles London. Raising money for @cancerresearchuk.org 💙
No worries if not 😊
@carolinefiennes.bsky.social would be great to be added to your starter pack please
Thank you so much ☺️
Thank you so much @katecollinsuk.bsky.social ☺️
I’m thrilled to announce that starting in January, I will be the new Head of Talent and Influencers at @cancerresearchuk.org.
With a decade of experience in relationship management across the sector, I am eager to lead the team in fostering strong, lasting partnerships with talent & influencers.
This is a significant moment with the #AssistedDying bill being passed. This is just the start of the conversation, with so much to figure out. I hope they bring in the Hospice sector early to consider the impact and viable options.
I've taken the dive!
It is excellent to hear @jonsopel1.bsky.social discuss the importance of palliative care and highlight the great work @hospiceuk.bsky.social does.
This blog offers valuable insights for anyone new to Bluesky. It's filled with helpful information, and I look forward to trying out some of those top tips.
When the legendary @pauldegregorio.bsky.social tells you it's time to go, it's time to go. Bye, #X.
I'm all yours, @bsky.app.
Is anyone else still actively using 'X' but feeling uneasy about whether it's finally time to abandon ship for good?
Great to connect @patriciabrayden.bsky.social - hope the Portuguese speaking lessons are going well!
Thank you - and for all the work you do 🙌
Looks great - added to the listen list!
Excellent and considered debate at 2nd Reading of the Tobacco & Vapes Bill
MP voting: 415 Ayes; 47 Noes
A significant step forward towards a #SmokefreeUK
It would be great to be included in this pack, please. And welcome 🙏
Concerns about NI increases are troubling many charities, and it seems there is little willingness from the government to exclude them from the increase.
I am so honoured to be a trustee for my local hospice.
Hospices face uncertain futures due to rising costs & inadequate funding.
However, I’m inspired by the executive team's resolve & the dedication of our staff, donors, & volunteers.
Hospices are extraordinary places that must be protected.
