I'd just like to say a huge thank you to everyone who joined in on Tuesday's #hachat. We had a great mix of people and lots of interesting conversations took place.
I know there were a few people who were unable to join in and WEGO Health have put a run-down of the chat on their blog. Click here http://blog.wegohealth.com/2014/06/26/your-patient-journey-health-activist-twitter-chat/ if you want to go and see what we were talking about!
Many thanks to WEGO Health for asking me to guest host and providing a space for people to interact with like-minded individuals and share experiences.

I'm hosting a Twitter Talk for Health Activists!
I have been asked to guest host a Twitter Talk for Health Activists by WEGO Health. The Twitter Talk will tale place for an hour between 3pm-4pm EST and 8pm-9pm BST on Tuesday 24th June 2014.
I have created a list of questions that I hope everyone will find thought-provoking and will hopefully stimulate some good conversations between us all. The questions will be listed below so you can have a sneaky preview to get those 'little grey cells' and fingers ready to go this Tuesday.
If you are unsure what a Twitter Talk is then I'll try to explain what they're all about. Twitter Talks or Twitter Tweet Chats are conversations that have an allocated hashtag (HT, #) that helps link and group all the messages being sent, questions and answers. They usually take place at a prearranged time and sometimes have an agenda or list of questions to help engage and promote conversations between participants.
WEGO Health is a different kind of social network, built from the ground up for the community leaders, bloggers and tweeters who are actively involved in health online. WEGO Health is a platform for committed health advocates to foster new relationships, gain access to helpful resources, and to grow their communities.

I really hope you manage to join me and many others for this weeks Health Activist's Twitter Chat at 3pm EST/8pm BST.
