He has worked for Dorset Healthcare University NHS Foundation Trust since 2011. For much of his OT career, he has worked in new and developing services or forward-thinking teams which encouraged my appetite for developing and improving services, processes, and care.

Since August 2022 he has been working informally as QI Lead as part of the new Transformation Team.

In this episode, I am in conversation with Belinda Dewar. Belinda is currently Visiting Professor at Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, Director of Wee Culture which aims to support people to explore and enhance culture through appreciative inquiry and Co-Director of My Home Life International which is a social movement which uses Appreciative Inquiry, Relationship Centred Practice and Caring Conversations to enhance the lives of those who live work and visit care settings. She was recently awarded an OBE for her contribution to nursing.
She uses and develops approaches that build on what currently works and understand why; uncover practices and experiences that are known but rarely said; involve everyone; can be used in everyday work; are provocative and make real differences to people. A strand that threads through all of her work is the belief that in every system something works well and there is transformative potential in noticing these happenings, amplifying these and support people to enable them to happen more of the time.
