    Hi,
    The NHS Choices website has 2 twitter accounts.
    @NHSChoices is a feed of the latest news, live well articles & videos
    @NHSChoicesTalk is a feed of the latest blog posts on the NHS Choices Blogs site
    It’s a bit convoluted having two but there are so many blog posts I wouldn’t want to overload users. Because it’s got a lot more followers, it gets more questions coming in so I use it to talk out more, but I’m trying to use the main one to do that, as it makes more sense!
