Time to change the narrative.

Physio support workers bring skill, compassion, and impact to every patient interaction.

We may not be registered, but we are trained, capable, and essential.
It’s time to recognise our value with the right words.

👉 Say “unregistered”, not “unqualified”

Doesn’t surprise me one bit…… towns that time (governments) forgot, a drop in industry, poorly paid jobs, rise in holiday homes in rural areas, rise of support for anti-union parties like Reform/Tories….. the reasons are endless. 😢

Next time someone on the right claims all the political violence in this country is coming from the left, not the right, do please show them this.

So we’re in a position where probably 1 or 2 people in the Ashington area are forcing their ‘freedom of expression’ on the entire town by hoying up flags. What about the others? How do we express our views without being targeted? @laverymp.bsky.social

The whole flag issue is just baffling to me, and it really can’t be challenged without motivating the right even more than they are already. 🤯

How are you educating members? I work with alongside A LOT of Unison members whose views are rogue to say the least. It’s tough but keep working on it for all our sakes. 🙏🏻
