We've come a long way as a campaign in the last 4 months with everybody mucking in and doing their best and its clear to me that we all deserve an official break because taking on the system is exhausting. From SABP's official responses and records I've posted on the Campaign Organiser its pretty clear that Fiona Edwards , Peter Kinsey and Declan Flynn et al have been taking annual leave to keep themselves and their lives in balance so today is going to be the
Justice for the Surrey & Borders NHS Partnership Garden Centre Workers Campaign's Big Chill Day .
Its our turn to Chill. We've earned it.
And dont worry , the problems arent going to go away while we are all chilling out today as the
Surrey & Borders NHS Trust ,
SCMH and the
Richmond Fellowship will be actively scheming on how to wrongfoot the campaign and race through to the conclusions they all decided upon long before they ever consulted service users involved in the Trust's work services.
After our official Big Chill Day I would like to look at better ways to track how FOIA and other enquiries and questions are being handled and dealt with by the Trust, you know, a way to better automate this. We need a system which it makes it easier for us all to keep an eye on the bigger picture while doing the best we all can to fight and keep an eye on our little corner of it.
Perhaps we can also include a better map of how SABP's services work so that if people arent happy with the response they get from Fiona say, they can go to the person responsible for what she does or the Secretary of State for Health or Parliamentary oversight and scrutiny Committee above them.
In the meantime, I want to add a new section , open source free Chill Resources.
Feel free to share your thoughts on how you want/need/plan to Chill today.
