Thank you to MSP Jackie Baillie, who supported our #RightToRehab event at #ScotLab25, which included @chsscotland.bsky.social.
The event demonstrated how vital access to rehab is for a better future.
'Rehab is key not just to good recovery but to prevention of future demand on the NHS.' 👏
Health Secretary Wes Streeting highlighted the importance of rehabilitation in making the NHS work, following the launch of healthcare reforms and a social care commission in England this week.

The lives lost can never be brought back, but at least the killing can now stop. I hope this marks the start of a lasting peace #Peace #GazaCeasefire
