2016 November 21

On Monday 21 November I hosted an event to raise awareness of Post-traumatic Hypopituitarism (PTHP). Joanna Lane, author of ‘Mother of a Suicide: The Battle for the Truth Behind a Mental Health Cover-up’, was concerned about the failure of health professionals to warn patients about PTHP.

I was delighted to meet young disabled people at the House of Commons who told me how volunteering has made a difference to them by developing their skills and raising their confidence through ‘Can Do’ workshops, community projects and mentoring.
