Just seen an on-line petition for a national care service. I find the term 'care' as in care home misleading and derogatory. I have always supported, taught, mentored, guided, assisted and worked to strengthen people based on caring about, not placing people as being done too.

I had the privilege of meeting Len Goodman on a couple of occasions whilst at the Sevenoaks Community and Voluntary awards. He always had time to speak to people, thanking them for their efforts in the service of others. He was a really nice guy and will be greatly missed

KCHFT act to remove staff protections for anyone that dare make a complaint about poor care or management. In future they can have negative remarks put on their file by the person or department under investigation marked as an opinion. UNISON - UK's largest union KentOnline NHS South East

The NHS Right to Raise a Concern Policy assures anyone that reports a concern that they will not be subject to retaliation. One Trust is now being advised to overturn that by interpreting data law to remove protections. Be good to hear from NHS staff in Kent KCHFT Quality Improvement

We love fake or fortune. I did send in a photo of what looks like a Matisse drawing found concealed behind another painting, but its origin remains a mystery.

I went to the gallery on the penultimate day the artworks were being burnt. It was a powerful experience full of ceremony and symbolism. I am so glad I went and once again allowed myself to be transported in thought to places I never imagined. That is the power of art.
