The most underrated act of kindness is letting people be. Let them mispronounce a word, talk too much about a show they love, or get excited about something you don't understand.✨️ Everyone's got something that lights them up. Let them shine, even if it's not your thing.✨️

#OliversCampaign A person who doesn’t use spoken words can communicate in many other ways. We just need to slow down, be patient, and truly listen with our eyes, ears, hearts, and minds. Always treat everyone with respect and dignity. #Health #Socialcare #medicine

Age-appropriate #dementia support is lacking in many parts of the UK so we are very keen to encourage people to start up groups that will cater specifically for people aged under 65. We created a resource which we have recently updated sharing suggestions and ideas to help others who are considering starting up groups, either face-to-face or online.

If we want to create change across systems, we need to shift the balance, with less focus on redesigning structures/processes & more focus on collaboration, empathy & genuine human connection. “The Human Heart of Systems Change” - a new report from CoCreative sets out learning from research with impact leaders. Some of the key themes: 1) Managing complexity through collaboration: Leaders emphasise bridge-building, supporting collective knowledge that goes beyond organisational silos, & adapting solutions to local contexts. 2) Investing in "connective tissue": Relationship-building & coordination are often underfunded, but critical. These activities should be recognised & resourced as core strategic infrastructure. 3) Leveraging technology for transparency: There is an opportunity to leverage AI & visualisation tools to make complex, dynamic systems visible in real time—enabling leaders to see, understand & act on key leverage points. 4) Evolving measurement & accountability: Output-based metrics are often inadequate to show the impact of systems work. There needs to be a shift toward collective impact measurement—capturing changes in relationships, power dynamics & the capacity for systems thinking 5) Building a robust leadership ecosystem: Isolation and lack of ongoing support for leaders can hinder sustainable progress. There is a strategic imperative to invest in continuous learning, peer reflection & collective knowledge development—strengthening not just individuals but entire leadership ecosystems. drive.google.com/file/d/1b3mQrU…
