Tommy Whitelaw’s Tour of Lincolnshire.
The Personalisation Team are pleased to announce that Tommy Whitelaw will be touring Lincolnshire for three days in November.
About Tommy Whitelaw
Tommy is the Person-Centred Voices National Lead for Scotland’s Health and Social Care Alliance and promotes person-centred approaches and ‘Intelligent Kindness’ across all areas of care and support.
For five years Tommy was a full-time carer for his late mother, Joan, who had Vascular Dementia. His work is driven by that experience and led by the values and principles of the ‘What matters to you’ and ‘Intelligent Kindness’ movements. These identify active listening, kindness and person-centredness as a key to providing inclusive support and care to all individuals, as well as creating healthy working environments.
The impact of Tommy’s work with organisations across the UK is well-evidenced. Those who have worked with him have reported the benefits of embedding person-centred approaches in their organisational structures, processes, and service delivery, seeing improved outcomes both for staff and the people they support.
Tommy is travelling across the county over three days and will do several 1 hour sessions to staff and volunteers across the system. Please note that the venue does not dictate who can attend, just because we are using Lincoln hospital for example, doesn’t mean only ULHT staff can attend. All sessions are open to all.
‘You make a difference’ workshops for team leaders and managers – 4th November at the Showroom Lincoln. Sign up here.
Tommy’s Talk Tour – 4th November at Lincoln County Hospital; 5th November at Horncastle, Skegness and Boston; 6th November at Spalding and Grantham.
Please note that ALL of the sessions are FREE TO ATTEND and open to EVERYONE, but only register for the one location that is most convenient to you.
