Alongside our calls to the new Government, we're pleased to join the UK's leading cancer charities for children and young people by co-signing this open letter. Together, we're calling on the new Prime Minister to prioritise the needs of young people with cancer & their families.

[Starlight @starlight_uk]

We couldn’t agree more. And nowhere is this more important than on children’s wards, where there is also a big need for more play specialists.

Being a leader of change means challenging the status quo. This can be tough. People have a "status quo bias". Behavioural economists tell us the fear of what might be lost is twice as strong as the hope of what might be gained. The more we are invested in something, the harder it is to abandon it. Strategies to challenge the status quo:
1) Take time to understand why/how things are as they are currently; be curious.
2) Start small, try out/test new ways of working and take things step by step.
3) Communicate your change vision effectively, backed up by data, framed in a way that resonates with people.
4) Be open to having your own ideas challenged.
5) Celebrate small wins & foster a culture of continuous improvement.
