Thanks to Kingston Hospital Charity and local fundraisers, we recently opened a new secure cycle shed, which will enable 50 staff bicycles to be stored in a locked unit on the Kingston Hospital site. Chief Finance Officer, Yarlini Roberts, who leads on sustainability at Kingston and Richmond NHS Foundation Trust, said: "The new cycle unit is a very welcome addition to the existing secure storage spaces for staff bicycles at the hospital. We have placed sustainability and the promotion of wellbeing at the heart of our Trust’s ten-year strategy, so we are hugely grateful to Kingston Hospital Charity, the Kingston Wheelers and other local clubs for funding such an important staff facility which promotes, fitness, wellbeing, and a greener and more cost-effective way for staff to get to work.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/e_eh8VUH

Sorting out the monthly members quiz is about the most fun I get to have during the work month! 10, usually, very simple general knowledge questions to be answered correctly to be entered in to a monthly draw to win a £100 e-gift card....now of the winners choice! And, if they're feeling altruistic, we can also donate the £100 sum to a charity of their choice instead. If you're not already an ADAM member then sign up for £10 a month and. alongside the support, magazines, legal helpline, huge range of discounts and more, you could also be in with a chance of winning every month....as long as you enter 🙄 #dentalpracticemanager #dentalpracticemanagement #dentalpracticeowner

I promised I’d take proper lunch breaks but realise I’m often blowing crumbs off my keyboard. Is this me failing at #Wellbeing? No! ‘We know it’s hard to #change old ways of behaving - we need to understand HOW to change before we look at WHAT to change.’ (Michael Bungay Stanier). Most people want others to change but don’t want to change themselves. That’s not gonna work. Do you want to know HOW to change? I’m sure this will form part of todays Wellbeing & Flexibility discussion at Flokk UK … 👋 I’m Christopher, founder of MONTROC Consulting Ltd. We specialise in Change and Transformation. It’s OCM in other language. We help organisations to #LiveWorkBetter by Activating Change, turning strategic intent into tactical action. We are Business Consultants focussed on Strategy and Change Management. If you need help, and if you can find us, maybe you could hire MONTROC Consulting Ltd 😉 #workplace #Culture #HybridWorking #TeamBuilding #ChangeManagement #FlexibleWorking #organisationaleffectiveness #WorkLifeBalance #LiveWorkBetter

Today, MPs at the House of Commons were due to hold an important debate on the future of hospice care funding in the UK. With so many hospices facing a significant financial deficit this coming year (on top of those experienced last year!), this debate was never needed more, and was a light of hope for hospices up and down the country. But, they ran out of time to discuss this topic and hear from the MPs who wished to speak, and it is to be rescheduled. But the clock is ticking. How much time is left before many hospices will be forced to cut vital services, when demand has never been higher and these services are never needed more. What is important is that enough time is protected for this important discussion at this level - something that impacts all constituencies across the UK, and it provides us with more time to encourage our MPs to attend the next scheduled debate. It is completely astonishing that to receive patient centred end of life palliative care in the UK, delivered with compassion, dignity and respect, we rely on sponsored runs, open gardens, people buying second hand clothes and gifts left in Wills. Can you imagine treating maternity services like this? There would be uproar (and rightly so). So why is it acceptable at the end of life? PLEASE support your local hospice, so we can keep supporting you! #Hospicecare #Hospices #Charity #Dorset #ThirdSector

As I recently shared, I am now working for St Vincent de Paul - QLD, so for the first time since 2008, I am not working in or for a Medical Centre. Given the diversity of the skills, experiences, and qualifications I gained in that time, it was time for a new industry, complete with new challenges. The very first project I was given, was helping with this years FNQ Vinnies Community Sleepout. The goal of this event, has three main components: 1) Raise awareness to the plight of over 22,000 Queenslanders who will tonight not have adequate or long term living arrangements, and will be braving the elements anywhere they can find 2) Raise awareness to the Good Works that St Vincent de Paul Society has done, continues to do, is about to do, and would like to do in the future. 3) Raise monies towards through events such as this to help achieve the goal of building 500 homes in Queensland over the next five years. You have the choice to spend the night under the stars with nothing but cardboard boxes for shelter. For so many others, they have lost this choice, and sleep wherever they can, possibly not even knowing where that will be each night. Sadly I, like so many others, suffer from Sleep Apnea, so sleeping rough for me is not really an option unless I have somewhere I can plug my CPAP machine into. But, I would still like to be part of the Fundraising, so have registered a donation page and have made the first donation. I'm asking if my extended network can do two things for me. Share this post, and donate $1.00. More if you can, but you would be amazed at how quickly this can grow. If you tell two people, who tells two people, who also tells two people, etc., after 4 iterations, my 600+ connections could extend my reach to 4,800 people, and raise $4,800.00 if everyone donates $1.00. My personal goal is $2,000.00, but I think we can smash this in no time! My donation page can be found https://bit.ly/AdzyCSO Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I look forward to thanking each of you individually for your share and donation.
