It's #WorldBrailleDay today. Which is a good opportunity to talk about #coproduction in service design.

Louis Braille was 15 when he developed his tactile writing system and made full professor at France's Royal Institute for Blind Youth before he was 24.

He was a smart chap.

Care can come from surprising places, according to @CormacRussell, who is talking about the lack of care he faced in his early life from the places and people he most relied on. But that care is about connection and contribution, as well as basic needs. #BetterShared21

Our panelist Greta has led a very active life, played sport for her county and been sworn at by John McEnroe, even at 90 she wanted to retain her independence and #Homeshare allowed her to do that. #BetterShared21
