We've been joined by @DeniseHampson at #NICON25, who is setting out the potential for human-centred design within the HSC system. Denise argues that the things people need tend to be quite modest, such as needing to feel like they are being heard and are significant.

.@MichaelMarmot spoke insightfully on how we can keep tackling health inequalities at the heart of the HSC reset in NI. “Hope is the opposite of fear, and if we are hopeful, we don’t sit back and wait for things to change. We can work to make things better.” #NICON25
