“Most of this work we’re doing is work we want to do anyway, that we’re already doing for free, but that makes it perpetually unsustainable.”

Join us as we imagine ways community funding could be done differently, and share the material impacts of the current system of projects, bids, and buzzword bingo.

...but are afraid to tell you because we can't afford to piss you off'

Recorded as part of an NHS #StartWithPeople event in March 2023, this episode explores the practical impacts of relying on project-based funding bids to deliver community development work, and asks if there are better ways of making that work #sustainable.

New #NHSEngland podcast with Patricia Miller, chief executive of Dorset Integrated Care Board, with some really fascinating takes on how #healthcare can drive #communityDevelopment. https://soundcloud.com/nhsengland/how-local-health-systems-can-help-build-better-communities. Produced by yours truly. #NHS #ABCD #StartWithPeople

Enjoyed dipping into the #NHS England Public Participation team's #StartWithPeople Spring Event today

With re-structures and financial year end dragging us into organisational self-absorption, it's both important and refreshing to spend time hearing the voices of the people we're all here to serve

Our next #StartWithPeople event takes place on Thursday 30 March - the biannual event for everyone involved in #participation and #engagement across the NHS and wider health and social care sector.

We've got some fascinating speakers talking about power in all it's different forms. It's a virtual event and open to everyone, so if it sounds like something up your street, then sign up today: https://bit.ly/start-with-people-march-2023

(and please do boost if you think your network would be interested!)

Great to present alongside @Jeffbluebeard@twitter.com and Jamesy at the @bhamcommunity@twitter.com nurses conference at @BCFC@twitter.com's St Andrew's stadium today. And the sun was out (hence the squinting!). #startWithPeople

#StartWithPeople is our growing movement of people that want to see health and care services working in genuine partnership with the people and communities they serve. This podcast is the first in our series exploring what this can look like when #GeneralPractice reaches out and connects with local people.
I'd love to hear what you think!

Thought I'd share a little bit about me .... Migrant from the bird site and feeling my way through this new space.
I work in the NHS and I'm passionate about how we genuinely involve people and communities to create our own health and the services we need to support wellness and happiness.
I'll also be posting random pictures of Moors, Stanley the Staffie, Kevin the Cat and Ragdoll Jim
I'll be using #StartWithPeople to share work we do. Be great to see folks getting connected and involved 💜

Another great #StartWithPeople online event coming up on 24 November

Drawn back to this blog post that I published 3 years ago today. Still pretty much where I stand on the skills and approaches we need to nurture in health and care #NHSbyDesign #StartWithPeople #ImprovingTogether

Full on day yesterday with #StartWithPeople virtual conference, followed by the #TechUK Health and Social Care industry dinner in the evening. Rob Webster's speech at the TechUK thing provided something of a bridge, but wow there's still a massive chasm of participation and diversity between these two worlds

Patricia Miller: training colleagues in her ICS in interviewing skills so they can go out and listen to people in communities, instead of expecting people to come to them #StartWithPeople
