We are proud to launch our new #NotTooMuchToMask initiative today, in a show of solidarity with everyone who wants to continue protecting themselves and others after now that the remaining COVID-19 restrictions have lifted in England.

A short🧵... 1/12

nhsconfed.org/not-too-much-t…
We have come so far. Vaccinations are making life safer but not everyone is protected and the threat of coronavirus is still here. We have brought together a number of leading bodies to help us all to stay safe and support the NHS

2/12
We can all help to stop the virus from spreading out of control by making sensible choices that reduce the risk of illness to ourselves and those around us. We think it’s #NotTooMuchToMask

3/12
So this summer we are asking people to join us in committing to 5 things as a minimum...

4/12
1⃣ Wear a face mask or covering, including where not wearing one could make someone feel unsafe.

5/12
2⃣ Clean your hands regularly, including before and after social contact with those outside your household.

6/12
3⃣Make sure you get both doses of the coronavirus vaccine and encourage people you know to the same.

7/12
4⃣ Do what you can to keep indoor spaces well-ventilated, and opt for meeting outdoors, where possible.

8/12
5⃣ Get tested, support contact-tracing measures and self-isolate when required.

9/12
We’re delighted to have been joined by so many supporters already & with more to follow

Today,@NHSEngland has published the NHS People Plan. Here’s some thoughts from our chief executive @NHSC_Niall

nhsconfed.org/news/2020/07/p…

1/9
We welcome this Plan which has been a long time coming.

Our staff are our greatest asset and if any evidence were needed of their dedication and commitment the terrible trauma of this pandemic has provided cast-iron proof of that.

2/9
It has been a period when so many staff have performed heroically at a time of unprecedented strain.

It is fitting the People Plan focuses on a commitment to look after our staff, many of whom are exhausted & now have to face up to the possibility of a gruelling winter.
