Key things:
1. Don't forget phone calls and group phone calls still exist - can be less intimidating.
2. Provision of kit and data - of you've not got any you can't get started

4. Creating a safe space - ok to not use camera etc...
5. All platforms have limitations, pros and cons - there isn't a perfect one!
6. Preparation is everything - make sure you've got contact numbers

8. Agree how you're going to work together - just as you would 'normally'
9. Keep it simple - there's loads of shiny tools, don't use them for the sake of it.
10. Keep learning - review how it was and improve together

Sitting on the train to Birmingham and reflecting on the many impactful and insightful conversations we've had today. Leaving feeling even more committed to shifting the systems attitude to involving and working in partnership with people and communities #EngagementPractitioners
Huge thanks to @ProfDonnaHall @SunnyDhadley @BradGudger @wellbeingandy and everyone who contributed their expertise, passion and impatience for change. #healthinequalities will only begin to be reduced in partnership with people, their families and communities.
BTW for those of you that know me .... I am even more committed so that should probably mean folk should be slightly scared 🤣🤣🤣

Thread: The attitude of 'just get X to do your engagement for you' is at the heart of why #NHS organisations often don't involve people and communities in meaningful ways that shift power and put people and communities in control. 1/7
Of course partnerships are critical. Often it's the #VCSE sector who have the trustees relationships, especially with people who are marginalised and excluded by society. But outsourcing your engagement also fails to achieve the coproduction and cocreation of services 2/7
And, more importantly, the cocreation of health and wellbeing. We have to support #NHS staff, clinicians and people to find ways of working together rather than perpetuate the patriarchal and paternalist medical model of treating illness. 3/7
