Further to being on the radio, work is now also on the tele! BBC Look East - circa 3 mins in: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m002gkz1/look-east-lunchtime-news-31072025
Also BBC online: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy4y9xm1eejo

This is all off the back of a very successfull trial with Cambs NHS with distinctly positive feedback and outcomes!
As I previously mentioned we're hiring software developers, physiotherapists, and other roles on-site in the #Cambridge (UK) area: https://careers.flok.health/
The software work is mainly #Python centred on a core of #Django, with some front-end using #SolidJS/#React and similar, plus the ususal sorts of tools and infrastructure. There's even a bit of Rust lurking off to one side (but not often touched at the moment.)
