  • Oxfordshire: a Trailblazer for the UK Economy
    Oxfordshire: a trailblazer for the UK economy 2018 Future State Assessment DECEMBER 2018 A GUIDE TO THE SUITE OF OXFORDSHIRE INDUSTRIAL STRATEGY DOCUMENTS We have produced three reports which, taken together, set an understanding of the current Oxfordshire economy, its future growth potential and how we can work together to deliver the opportunities we have identified. Further information about what you can expect from each report is set out below. The Baseline Economic Review is an objective assessment of Oxfordshire’s economic performance to date. It explores how Oxfordshire has performed relative to the UK as a whole, as well as the relative performance of each district authority and different types of businesses and sectors within the county. This report provides detailed economic and spatial analysis that has helped us to shape and prioritise future plans for inclusive growth, productivity improvements and place-based developments, which are set out in the Oxfordshire Industrial Strategy. The Future State Assessment sets out what Oxfordshire has the potential to achieve. It introduces the context for why we are aspiring to be a top three global innovation ecosystem and what this means for Oxfordshire, as well as detail on the key industries in which Oxfordshire can be globally competitive. It details an ambitious economic growth agenda for Oxfordshire, along with the counterfactual ‘do nothing’ scenario that discusses the risks we face if we do not initiate a step change in growth. Finally this report sets out a spatial vision for Oxfordshire, to ensure that growth in Oxfordshire is achievable and sustainable. The Oxfordshire Industrial Strategy is the overall plan to deliver inclusive growth across Oxfordshire, drive productivity and innovation, and generate additional growth for the UK.

  • Oxfordshire NHS & Local Authorities Stakeholder Briefing: COVID-19
    Oxfordshire NHS & Local Authorities Stakeholder Briefing: COVID-19 12 May 2020 As we enter week eight of lockdown, it is heartening to reflect on how much the NHS and local authority partners have achieved during this period, and the huge contribution that staff across these organisations have made in responding to the pandemic. It is essential during this challenging time that we support our staff to prioritise their health and wellbeing. Oxfordshire local authorities are using online resources to support the wellbeing and mental health of staff, most of whom are now working from home. Across the county, city and district councils there are numerous initiatives underway to support staff during this challenging time. These include the development of intranets to focus on wellbeing, from fitness and self-help videos to e-learning modules on topics such as resilience and understanding mental health. Weekly activities are being run to support staff and surveys are being undertaken to seek feedback and measure the effectiveness of the initiatives put in place. Online mindfulness sessions, video guides on relaxation techniques and resources to support mental health are also available. Virtual coffee mornings and virtual car sharing initiatives are also taking place in different areas of the NHS and local authorities to connect colleagues who miss the companionship of the office environment and want to buddy up for a chat at the start or end of the working day. GP practice staff and staff at Oxford University Hospitals (OUH) NHS Foundation Trust, Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust (OHFT) and Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group (OCCG) all have access to a wide range of health and wellbeing support including their Employee Assistance Programmes (EAP) which are available 24/7 online and by phone.

  • Colonial Caring: a History of Colonial and Post-Colonial Nursing
    COLONIAL CARING COLONIAL A history of colonial and post-colonial nursing ’A treasure trove of fresh insight, new research and analysis, this book demonstrates the vibrancy of nursing history. Its editors should be congratulated for their vision and energy in bringing together a series of chapters which express not only the many meanings of colonialism, but reveal how nursing provides a kaleidoscope through which to view broader social attitudes towards race, class, gender and the value of care from a comparative perspective.’ Anne Marie Rafferty, Professor of Nursing and Dean of the Florence Nightingale School of Nursing and Midwifery, King’s College London C The history of nursing presents a unique perspective from which to interrogate ARING colonialism and post-colonialism. Nurses were often a key conduit between coloniser and colonised, and many powers used nurses as a means of insinuating their own cultures into the lives of indigenous people. However, despite the valuable insights such an approach reveals, colonial history has never before been approached from this particular direction. Colonial caring brings together essays from an international group of historians who examine the relationship between colonialism, nursing and nurses. Gender, class and race permeate the book, as the complex relationships between nurses, their medical colleagues, governments and the populations they nursed are examined in detail, using case studies which draw on exciting new sources. Sweet and Hawkins and Hawkins Sweet Many of the chapters are based on first-hand accounts of nurses, producing a view of the colonial process from the ground, or use multiple sources to piece together a story which was never recorded in its entirety in official records.

  • Oxford High School Careers Event 2021: Set Sail for Your Future – Opportunities & Taking the Lead
    Oxford High School Careers Event 2021: Set Sail for your Future – opportunities & taking the lead Thursday, 21st January, 6-8 p.m. Links for this virtual event will be shared via Careers Google Classroom, for Years 9 to 13 Welcome Whilst our Careers Fair in 2019 aimed to help students make informed decisions about their future by encouraging them to seek out information regarding courses and career paths, which interest them, our event in 2020 was of a rather different nature. Over 40 alumnae were hoping to open your minds to what lies beyond your chosen university degrees and to open your minds to career paths which you had not yet considered. This year, we are grateful to over 35 parents and alumnae - with the support of some external speakers - who would like to share their experiences and stories about their professional journeys with you. There is an array of linear and non-linear career paths on offer and now more than ever, it is important to be open-minded, ready for challenges, and fearless in taking leadership opportunities. Never expect to know what lies ahead, but always be prepared to make well informed decisions. Thank you We would like to thank all panellists for joining us virtually this evening. Your valuable insight and advice to our students is very much appreciated, and we hope to welcome you back to Oxford High School soon. We would also like to thank our current students and parents for joining us for the event tonight! 1 Internet safety and technical information It is always easier to speak to people face to face and our panellists would appreciate seeing some face on the screen.
