44. Happy New Year! Where do we go from here?

Wild Card - Whose Shoes?

Happy New Year - and thank you for listening!

For pretty much the first time ever, I’m starting the New Year with a plan. Or at least I thought I was. But, in the words of John Lennon, “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans” so perhaps planning is overrated. Whose Shoes has had a pretty crazy, organic development up until now, so I’m sure it will continue to find its own course. We’ll see.
So, in this podcast, I look ahead to some of the Whose Shoes work we have planned for 2023. It will serve to put a marker in the sand as to where things are at; key projects and opportunities, and then perhaps compare at the end of the year, what actually happened.
Look out in particular for our projects around:

· Family Integrated Care in neonatal units

· Integrating services for children and young people.

· Exploring health inequalities, particularly around maternity care and how they affect women and families in black and ethnic minority communities.
I also talk about my article in Patient Experience News this month.

I share thoughts such as:

• “If you want to engage people, you have to be engaging.”
• Keep it simple.
• Listen to people and trust them.

Radical? You decide.
The podcast is enabling me to talk to amazing people who are making a difference in health care. I keep discovering more of them.
Coming soon: I will be talking to some fabulous new guests about health inequalities.
Here’s to 2023, and to paraphrase my friend, Helen Calvert:
"Let’s squeeze every bit of joy and opportunity from it”.
