I had a conversation today about the difference between "kindness" & "niceness" in leadership so I decided to post about it. The article & graphic explain why, as leaders, we should choose kindness over niceness. Kindness is about caring enough to push people toward greatness,

As we mark the end of #16daysofactivism, let’s imagine a world where we stop hearing insulting messages like these. There is something shameful about a society that chooses to view us, and not the people who abused us as ā€˜disordered’. Let’s turn this message on it’s head -

Blaming people who have experienced #trauma for being traumatised, and complaining at their neurobiological response to chronic unsafety, is like blaming children for not being adults or sleeping people for being asleep. Read more: carolynspring.com/blog/why-the-s…  #TherapistsConnect

As inquiry after inquiry has shown, there are systemic patient safety risks in the private hospital sector. Using the private sector to treat greater volumes of patients without addressing these risks knowingly puts patients at risk of harm.

Wes Steeting claims the private sector will provide additional NHS capacity, but its record on this is very poor CHPI theguardian.com/society/2025/j…

We share concerns from the CHPI report that profit margins appear to be driving prioritisation in outsourcing NHS cataract care to the private sector. Read our response in full: ow.ly/PVzb50VGe4Z

By increasing use of the private sector Ministers are knowingly exposing patients to increased risk of harm. Ministers have now been told this by civil servants - the only response has been to axe NHSE and defund ICBs which are there to monitor the private sector's contracts.

Outsourcing NHS cataract care has delivered big profits to private firms and the more that private provision of NHS care continues the more the NHS will be defunded bmj.com/content/389/bm… via CHPI

PFI vs PF Eye? Our research shows that outsourced NHS eye care services leaks the same amount of profit in one year as all 100 NHS PFI schemes. From a public finance scandal it is bigger than PFI. Find out how much leaks out in your local area here: chpi.org.uk/the-outsourcin…

In 2012 I set up CHPI to research and report on the outsourcing of NHS services to the private sector. We are currently looking for two new Trustees with fundraising, legal and accounting expertise. Please see: chpi.org.uk/call-for-trust…
