When Sophie needed a new toothbrush, she was overwhelmed by the ridiculous choice of products available that all (give or take the odd tongue scrubber) do exactly the same thing. There are an awful lot of toothbrushes being made, and even more being thrown away. The NHS recommends that you “replace your brush or brush attachment every three months”.

It has been a busy start to the ‘new school term’ (does that feeling ever go?) at the RSA and in the Fellowship Programme team.

I'm on my way to Coventry to speak at a summit of local authority senior executives. Reflecting, depending on your point of view, either my lack of scholarly rigour or my commitment to intellectual experimentation, whenever I do substantial gigs like these I try to develop different dimensions to my argument.
It is not often that service users and practitioners alike are scrambling for copies of the same academic publication. Professor Joanne Neale, Dr. Sarah Nettleton and Dr. Lucy Pickering have produced a piece of work that captures the ‘The everyday lives of recovering heroin users’ through interviews with forty men and women in varying stages of recovery from heroin use. The book illuminates the mental, physical and emotional struggles and transformations someone might go through in recovery using the words of those with first-hand experience.
