Wild Card - Whose Shoes?

About Wild Card - Whose Shoes?

Welcome to Wild Card – Whose Shoes! Walking in the shoes of more interesting people 😉 My name is Gill Phillips and I’m the creator of Whose Shoes, a popular approach to coproduction and I am known for having an amazing network. Building on my inclusion in the Health Services Journal ‘WILD CARDS’, part of #HSJ100, and particularly the shoutout for ‘improving care for some of the most vulnerable in society through co-production’, I enjoy chatting to a really diverse group of people, providing a platform for them to speak about their experiences and viewpoints. If you are interested in the future of healthcare and like to hear what other people think, or perhaps even contribute at some point, ‘Whose Shoes Wild Card’ is for you! Find me on Twitter @WhoseShoes and @WildCardWS and dive into https://padlet.com/WhoseShoes/overview to find out more! Artwork aided and abetted by Anna Geyer, New Possibilities.

Where do we park? Where are we going? What will the MRI scanner look like? What will actually happen when we get there? These may seem like small questions, but knowing w...

   In this episode of Wild Card – Whose Shoes?, Gill Phillips is joined by Samira Ben Omar, newly appointed Professor of Inclusive Practice at St Mary’s School of Medicine. Samira is helping to shape something genuinely exciting: a brand-new, socially accountable school of medicine, built around communities, inclusion, humility, curiosity and trust.

   77. Turning 70: Sian Lockwood on Ageing, Purpose and OOPS

   On the day before my 70th birthday (how did that happen?!), I wanted to mark the occasion by talking to someone who is making us all think differently about ageing. My guest is Sian Lockwood - co-founder of WIGO (When I Get Old) and writer of the brilliant OOPS blog: Outspoken Older People Subverting. We talk about what it really feels like to get older - from feeling 35 in your head (most of the time!) to navigating the realities of changing energy, friendships, family life and purpose. Ther...
