Hello faithful readers,
January seems to have been Respect and Inclusion month. Usually, the beginning of the year is wall to wall Motivational Interviewing, well, not this year, 2026 has seen me deliver several Respect sessions to various organisations, (along with lots of Motivational Interviewing too!) The organisation that I’m highlighting today is MPFT, AKA Midlands Partnership University NHS Foundation trust. Who have continued to work collaboratively with me and have been instrumental in my creating brand new films and interviews that reflect the various job roles at MPFT and their clients. I’ve also made some life-long friends through these sessions, and I’m already booked throughout 2026 and 2027! So, thank you NHS and long may our relationship continue!
The course has been created bespoke for them, so they get their own films, their own board game and a raft of other tailored creations. I’m ever so innovative you know!
On with the feedback:
