The misery of housing rental. English monthly wage about £2,700 a month. Average rental £1276 a month. In London, £2035. No wonder there is widespread food insecurity and cold homes. Mr Micawber’s budget. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

I am about to join Don Berwick for a masterclass about reducing waste and improving quality in our health service. Thankyou to Bevan Commission - this is a pinch me moment, I can’t believe that I’m going to meet a man who I have admired and quoted for years.

I'm engaging in outstanding discussions with leaders of change in health & care from across the globe at #Quality2024. A big theme is how relationships & relatedness are increasingly becoming the primary focus of change methodologies. Read this blog from North East and North Cumbria NHS on how a theory

I'm at #Quality2024 live, listening to Amy Edmondson talking about principles from her book “The Right Kind of Wrong – The Science of Failing Well”. Amy differentiates three kinds of failures in organisations: 1) Basic failures: caused by carelessness or ignorance 2) Complex

Another excellent article about the book by Amy Edmondson "Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well". In an interview with Harvard Business Review, Amy says experimentation and risk-taking are crucial for organisational success but they should be enabled within a coherent framework.

How about some radiotherapy for early Dupuytren’s disease? Exploring the topic with Dr Richard Schaffer during our recent Mersey Hand and Wrist meeting in Liverpool. Thanks Stephen Lipscombe and @PrashJesudason for organising!

What an amazing performance by @michaelSheen and cast in #Nye at the Wales Millennium Centre. The Bevan Commission team were so proud to attend and would encourage others to see the really powerful and emotional story of the establishment of our #NHS

what does Wes Streeting mean when he refers to the NHS as broken? Fixing the health care delivery system must include social care, a long term strategy for tackling the root causes of current challenges, and avoid changing the NHS funding model bmj.com/content/386/bm…
