1/ Some useful 🧡s /tools on NHS pension scheme, pension taxation, & why its *still* a car crash for NHS (retention). #TaperTweakDidntWork

For me this has always been about two simple themes- patient safety & survival of the NHS

HOW IT STARTED ('19) HOW ITS GOING ('22)

2/ I've redone this 🧡 as a compendium of some of the more important /educative/impactful tweets/threads🧡& tools I've done over the last 18 months or so they are all in 1 place. For some, they are done annually each tax year. Here goes- enjoy I hope you find it useful
