Chief Executive's Report Report to: Board of Directors (Public) Paper number: 1.7 Report for: Information Date: 28 January 2021 Report authors: Various Report of: Angela McNab, Chief Executive FoI status: Report can be made public Strategic priority Early and effective intervention supported: Cultural pillar We are connected Supported: Title: Chief Executive’s Report Executive Summary This report provides updates on a number of key meetings with staff and external stakeholders and information on key national developments. In addition, this report provides news of internal events and media interest. Use of the Trust seal is also reported. Recommendations to the Board The Board of Directors is requested to: • RECEIVE and ACCEPT the contents of this report for information; and • RATIFY the reported use of the Trust Seal. CHIEF EXECUTIVE’S REPORT GENERAL UPDATE Management of the Covid-19 Pandemic The Trust is actively managing a number of Covid-19 outbreaks on its wards. A review of our approach has been undertaken, including looking at practice in other trusts to ensure we are following best practice. We are seeing a recent slight increase in Covid-19 related staff absence and this is being managed appropriately according to policy and guidance. Covid- 19 LFT testing is in place for ‘patient facing’ staff. Oversight is maintained through ‘Gold Command’ meetings that take place three times each week (or more frequently if required). Our staff continue to provide psychological support for colleagues across the local health system as part of the health and wellbeing agenda and this is well received. Further details are provided within the Covid-19 Pandemic Wave Update later on this meeting’s agenda. Having left the EU The United Kingdom has now left the European Union with a trade deal, and all staff have been provided with a letter through the all staff bulletin on 31 December 2020 updating them on the implications of this, and how to respond to any newly emerging risks arising from EU Exit. This “key messages” letter advises on: • how to respond to shortages of drugs, medical equipment and key clinical and non- clinical supplies and services; • the key workforce issues and how the NHS should respond to them; • how data flows to and from the EU will be managed; and • the management of vaccines, blood and transplant, research and clinical networks, reciprocal health care and cost recovery, and health security. ORGANISATIONAL UPDATE Community Mental Health Transformation Programme NCL and Trust level programmes of work continue to expand and transform community mental health services in partnership with Primary Care Networks (PCNs), the Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS), local authorities, physical health providers, service users, families, carers and communities, in line with The Community Mental Health Framework for Adults and Older Adults. New integrated models of care will provide flexible, proactive care and support for people with moderate to severe mental illnesses across a range of diagnoses and needs, focussing on prevention and population health management. This represents a radical change and full implementation of this new model across all areas by 2023/24 is a key deliverable in the NHS Long Term Plan, with ringfenced new investment. New roles are being developed and resources allocated to address historic inequalities and improve outcomes in community mental health, including: • Developing ‘core’ teams with multi-agency representation from NHS, social care and VCS, rooted in communities and wrapped around Primary Care Networks (PCNs). • Enhancing ‘intensive’ teams that deliver more specialist care with shorter waiting times to those with the most complex needs, with flexible stepping up and down as required. The recruitment of new staff has already begun, including Population Health Nurses, Peer Coaches and VCS roles within core teams, and a range of additional roles to strengthen our Early Intervention in Psychosis (EIP) Services. Following expected confirmation of NHSE Transformation Funding on the 8 February, further recruitment will commence to support the development of the new integrated model in four early implementer PCNs: Kentish Town Central and Kentish Town South PCNs in Camden and Central 1 and Central 2 PCNs in Islington. New roles will include Mental Health Social Workers, Psychologists, Psychiatrists and a range of VCS roles including Recovery Workers, Community Development Workers and Welfare Benefits Advisors. Dunkley Ward Fire Update On 1 December 2020 the Trust was issued with a fire safety enforcement notice by the London Fire Brigade (LFB). This was withdrawn on 18 December 2020 following quality assurance work by the LFB. A new notice has now been received which requires the Trust to ensure that: • All fire exit routes, doors and escapes are checked at the start of every shift; • door closers are fitted, working and maintained; • ISS repairs all fire doors as part of its PPM process; • fire dampers are fitted in Dunkley; search training is delivered to reduce risk of access to ignition sources; and • this is all completed by 29 June 2021. The Trust has firm plans in place to achieve compliance by the stated date. Staff Covid Vaccinations / Covid-19 Vaccine Update In December 2020, we had the first Covid-19 vaccination approved for use in the UK. NHS England and NHS Improvement (NHSE/I) sent a letter to all NHS organisations stressing the immediate requirement to vaccinate frontline health and social care staff. Working with North Central London (NCL) Partners, Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust (C&I) has established access to vaccinations for all front-line staff. To date, we have managed to offer slots to our staff who have booked with our local partners and received their first dose of the vaccine. In the last week of December 2020, the second Covid-19 vaccination was approved making it possible to access more vaccinations for our staff. On Thursday, 7 January 2021, the Trust received NHSE/I guidance stating that by mid-January, all NHS Provider Trusts will be established as “hospital hubs” and the default providers of Covid-19 vaccinations for all healthcare and social care workers. In response to the Covid-19 vaccination guidance, we have been working to stand up our vaccination hub. We are happy to report that the plans have progressed well at pace and have identified Camden Mews as the site for our vaccination hub. This offers us an opportunity to provide vaccinations for all our clinical frontline staff and non-clinical frontline staff. We have weekly staff engagement webinars led by our Trust Chair and CEO in place and these have been well received. The webinars offer all staff an opportunity to ask any questions about accessing the vaccination and the vaccination itself. We are pleased to announce, all being well, that our vaccination hub will go live on the 21 January 2021, subject to NHSEI approval. Changes to M1 Performance Reporting 2021/22 The national team are undertaking a comprehensive review on how the new Oversight Framework for 2021 will look based on NHS Long Term Plan. This will take some months to complete which means some arrangements will be put in place to maintain pace and focus on the performance management agenda at the Trust from Month 1, 2021/22. To support this, the KPIs for the Board will be reduced to a more manageable and focused level whilst adding some key themes such as quality improvement (QI) initiatives, innovative practices in development of staff (People Plan), apprenticeship program, etc. The remaining indicators will be monitored and reviewed by the relevant sub committees. These arrangements will provide robust assurance across the Trust and will enable the Board to focus on areas of greatest concern. The reduced KPIs will be based on a number of agreed principles. a. Will retain sufficient KPIs to maintain the integrity of the individual domain. b. The reduced KPIs will continue be monitored and reported with the same level of rigour as those reported to the Board to provide the assurance required. c. Some key KPIs such as DTOCs, long stayers, etc., will be brought twice yearly to the Board, and wherever possible, presented with benchmarking the Trust against national performance. d. Any KPIs that require further monitoring by the Board will be reassigned back into the Trust Board report. The KPIs will be finalised once the new national performance oversight framework is published, which was expected in January 2021 but due to Covid pressures, this has been delayed. Discussions are on-going at both national and local level to finalise this, which will align to the NHS Long Term Plan and Integrated Care Programme. Council of Governors During January the Trust Chair hosted a virtual Governors’ Open meeting and the Council of Governors’ Steering Committee met. The Governors’ St Pancras Transformation Programme, Finance & Business Planning and Membership working groups all had meetings scheduled during the latter half of that month. The next meeting of the Council of Governors is scheduled for Tuesday 9 February 2021. MEDIA PROFILE Local Press Coverage There was coverage in the Camden New Journal of the Team of the Year Award presented by the Royal College of Psychiatrists to our Camden Learning Disability Service which is run jointly by the Trust, Camden Council and Whittington NHS Trust. In a letter to the Editor, Councillor Pat Callaghan, Cabinet Member for a Healthy and Caring Camden and Councillor Angela Mason, Cabinet Member for Best Start for Children and Families said “This is an amazing achievement, so congratulations to the whole team and a huge thank-you for your work which is positively shaping the lives of many Camden residents”. TRUST EVENTS Annual Members Meeting There was strong attendance at our Annual Members’ Meeting which you can watch back here. It was the first ever to be held online and we were delighted to welcome as our guest speaker, Claire Murdoch, NHS England and Improvement’s National Mental Health Director.

  • London Assembly Economy Committee – 21 March 2017
    Appendix 1 London Assembly Economy Committee – 21 March 2017 Transcript of Item 6 – Local News Provision Fiona Twycross AM (Chair): That brings us to today’s main item, a discussion on local news provision in London. Firstly, can I ask Members to agree the terms of reference for the discussion? They are: to examine how local news provision in London has changed over the past decade and what is driving that change and to consider the impact of these changes on the ability of Londoners to remain reliably informed on key issues in their local areas. I would now like to welcome our guests. We do have slightly more guests than we normally would, but there were a whole range of different angles on this and so thank you, everybody, for coming along. We have Laura Davison, who is National Organiser from the National Union of Journalists (NUJ); Hannah Walker, who is London Managing Director and Editor-in-Chief of the London Weekly News; Ceri Gould, Editor-in-Chief of the Trinity Mirror; and Professor Angela Phillips from Goldsmiths, University of London. Michael MacFarlane [Head of BBC London & BBC South East] is going to join us at about 11.00 am. Eric Gordon is here; he is Editor of the Camden New Journal (CNJ) group. Martin Hoscik is a journalist and commentator, notably of MayorWatch. We are also expecting Linda Quinn, Editor-in-Chief of the Brixton Bugle, who, again, is expected at about 11.00 am. That brings us to the start of the questioning and to one of the most topical questions in London around media at the moment: will the appointment of a serving politician as editor of the [London] Evening Standard affect the news coverage in London? Would anybody like to start? Laura Davison (National Organiser, National Union of Journalists): I am happy to kick off.

In addition, this report provides news of internal events and media interest, and details any use of the Trust seal. Recommendations to the Board The Board of Directors is requested to: RECEIVE and ACCEPT the contents of this report for information. Risk Implications The paper covers developments in areas already identified within the risk register. Finance Implications There are no specific financial implications resulting from this update report. CHIEF EXECUTIVE’S REPORT GENERAL UPDATE The Trust has continued to progress its longstanding work to reduce length of stay and support alternatives to admission. I am pleased to say that, following the recent surge of A&E referrals, we now are now back on our previous low figure of out of area placements and generally managing demand locally. I am grateful to all staff who have worked so hard to manage the recent increased demand. In January we hope to be starting the innovative partnership model between the London Ambulance Service and mental health support whereby a mental health nurse will go out to patients who call assistance reporting they are in crisis. This model was trialled in South London and significantly reduced the number of people who were conveyed to an Emergency Department; providing better care for patients.

  • Completed Acquisition by Archant Limited of the London Regionals Division of Independent News & Media Plc
    Completed acquisition by Archant Limited of the London Regionals Division of Independent News & Media plc The OFT's decision on reference under section 22 given on 29 April 2004 PARTIES Archant Limited (Archant) publishes local and regional newspapers and magazines in the UK, mainly in the south-west of England, East Anglia and the Home Counties. Prior to the merger it was the sixth largest publisher of weekly paid-for local and regional newspaper in the UK. Its UK turnover in the year to 31 December 2002 was £146 million. Independent News & Media plc (INM) is an Irish-based international communications group with operations in countries including the UK, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. In the UK it owns The Independent and the Belfast Telegraph. Its five London local newspaper divisions that are the subject of this transaction formed the London Regionals Division, which had a turnover of £16.5 million in the year to 31 December 2002. They were: Post, East London, North London, North West London and Kent. TRANSACTION Prior to this transaction, INM's London Regionals Division was the subject of an anticipated acquisition by Newsquest (London) Limited, which was referred to the Competition Commission (CC) under the Fair Trading Act 1973 (FTA). That transaction was abandoned following the CC's Report in October 2003 (the CC Report)1 which found the transfer of a number of INM London Regionals Division titles to be against the public interest. Archant then acquired three of the five divisions within INM London Regionals Division (i.e. Post (covering outer East London), East London and North London) on 11 December 2003 and agreed an option to acquire the North West London and Kent divisions.

Recommendations 34 2 A SURVIVORS’ GUIDE TO HYPERLOCAL MEDIA Foreword HE IDEA of producing A Survivors’ Guide to Hyperlocal Media - online services that target a relatively small T geographic location - suggests that this form of publishing is in a state of peril. In fact, over the last five years, developing a website has become so cheap and simple that it has led to hundreds of new, hyperlocal services in the UK. There is a wide variety of news, information, opinion and campaigning across these sites, but whatever their focus and frequency of publication, their emergence has, arguably, led to no less than a renaissance in local journalism. The best hyperlocal sites frequently give incumbent local media a run for their money in terms of quality and readership. Audience demand for local, authentic information and other content is growing too, driven by the rapid take up of location- aware smartphone and tablet devices. It has never been easier for us to find out about our local surroundings and to connect with other local people, businesses and organisations. It will not be long before more than 50% of all search engine results are related to location. So why the Survivors’ Guide? Despite the proliferation of hyperlocal services across the UK, professional and semi-professional publishers find it hard to generate sufficient revenue to pay for the costs of content production.

Camden is a wonderfully diverse and open community: cosmopolitan, vibrant, and forward- looking. We also cherish our past, our cultural heritage, and our history. It is this combination that makes Camden such a unique borough. Camden Conservatives reflect that diversity, with citizens of twelve different countries serving as councillors and standing as candidates: from France to Finland, and Bangladesh to Jamaica. For me — as a British-Italian man who grew up in the US and has lived in Italy, France, and Luxembourg — choosing to move to Camden over 20 years ago was a surprisingly simple decision.
