Andy Robson 🤝🏼 David Munyua
I've wanted to sponsor a player for the past few years, now it's a reality.
Three years ago David picked up a dart for the first time, now he's the first Kenyan to qualify for the PDC World Darts Championship.
18th December. Let's get behind him.

📣 New paper in @BGJP led by @ThatyoungDr giving insight into older adults’ perspectives on decision making for suspected cancer investigations. Highlights the clear value of a diagnosis, even if that involves invasive tests. @richarddneal

Inactivity with hospitalisation is disastrous for physical function in older adults.
So much so that >30% of older adults leave hospital unable to do at least one activity of daily living they could do independently beforehand.
But it doesn’t take much activity to offset these losses.
A new study found as little as 25 min/day of slow walking was enough to improve physical function in older adults during hospitalisation.
There were greater benefits with up to 50 min/day slow walking or multicomponent programs incorporating resistance exercise.

See tweets from @DrLindaDykes and @doctorcaldwell for more information and advice on this topic.
CPR is not a treatment for #ordinarydying. Every instance of futile CPR - which is what will happen if nobody has sorted out the protection of a DNACPR for someone whose life is coming to an end - is a tragedy. Please, doctors, nurses, patients, families - #havetheconversation.

In a rather crappy week, please enjoy this absolutely delightful moment on BBC Look North
