This has been my lifeโ€™s philosophy rigorously enforced over the last few years - find the good people. Love the clarity of expression here. So true and well put. My appreciation to all those people Iโ€™ve kept close for being so brilliant - kind, caring, smart, wise.

Great to be on BBC Radio Scotland News to discuss why establishing an Older People's Commissioner is so important- for accountability, for advocacy & for championing the rights of a growing proportion of Scotland's population

With my massive following of 55 I'm not sure this announcement is going to be a success, but it's worth a try. On Tuesday we start a 19 day charity cycle around England and Wales to raise funds for PAPYRUS . We lost our son to suicide in 2013 at the age of 17.
