Adam Lent from the King's Fund talks about the need to re-instill compassion, humanity & love into our institutions. Adam sees a need to shift from 'to-ism to with-ism', working with people and communities rather doing to them. #NAVCAConference25

Thank you, Asha Neighbourhood Centre group, for having us. The service users' feedback was very valuable, and Parveen enjoyed chatting with the group.

I really hope the handshake dies out soon. I bumped into an old workmate today, & he initiated a handshake, which I attempted to engage in. It was such a limp, awkward effort. I apologised in shame, but wasn't sure if it was me or him, who caused the horror show. I don't need this in 2025 😓
