It’s World Kindness Day!🌍💛

This time of year often brings its own challenges. With shorter days, cold and wet weather, and added financial pressures, it’s understandable that many of us find it a little more difficult.

Today is a great reminder to show kindness to others, but it’s just as important to be kind to yourself too.

Here are a few small ways to do just that:
👉Get outside: Even a short walk can lift your mood and energy.
👉Play something uplifting: Listen to music, podcasts, or sounds that make you feel good.
👉Take regular breaks: Step away from your screen and take five.
👉Stay connected: Check in with friends or colleagues.
👉Treat yourself: Enjoy a small sweet treat or a little indulgence.

Remember, in a world where you can be anything, be kind.

“EPS is a safer way of managing prescriptions and the tracker means there is less likelihood of prescriptions going missing.”

We’ve been talking to staff at Roath House Surgery in Cardiff about the benefits of the Electronic Prescription Service – and these are just some of them! Roath House Surgery is one of 122 GP practices in Wales now using EPS, which is a third of all practices. In addition, more than 76% of community pharmacies – 525 – are using the service to receive prescriptions digitally from GP practices

Roath House Surgery went live with EPS in June, with staff seeing benefits such as greater efficiency and a reduction in the amount of paper printed. Read what office manager Michelle Brewerton and practice pharmacist Gethin Morgan think of the service in our news story here ⬇️

Our Head of Agile Delivery, Joshua Hunt, recently attended the Dolenni Digidol event to share his reflections as part of the alumni panel for the Leading Modern Public Services programme.

Josh spoke about resilience, user-centred design, and building communities around shared challenges and lessons that continue to shape how we deliver digital health services across Wales.

‘I think that natural human contact with other leaders across public sector, is really valuable because you’re able to have quite organic conversations about different challenges as a group and how we might build some of those solutions together.
