Do you work or volunteer for a care home, in domiciliary care or in the Voluntary, Community, Faith or Social Enterprise (VCFSE) sector?
Would you like to better understand the Integrated Care System and how it relates to your work? Attend our online workshop to learn more…
The North & West Bristol Locality Partnership wants to enable wellbeing and support healthy communities. We know that being well is so much more than not being ill. It is about feeling welcome and being connected with friends, family and neighbours. It is also about practical things, such as spending time in green space, having access to nutritious food, reducing money worries and living in good quality housing. These ‘social determinants of health’ are themes care and VCFSE sector organisations work with day to day.
We want to create a North and West Bristol where the VCFSE, health and care sectors are integrated in a way that best serves our population. We would like to enable people in North and West Bristol to be well by ensuring they can access the right support at the right time. When people do become ill, our aim is that services better meet their needs and are more joined up, so individuals only have to tell their story once. We hope by working together, celebrating diversity, and listening to communities, we will increase equity and improve the lives of people who live and work in our locality.
Workshops
We are running a series of workshops for care workforce and volunteers, VCFSE sector organisations and community workers in North & West Bristol to hear about the changes happening in health and care. These sessions offer a chance to discuss how this shift may affect the people and communities you work with and an opportunity to consider the relevance of the changes to your organisation. We will also explore how to get involved, influence, feed valuable community insights into – and hear back from – the wider system.
Please book on to the February remote workshop via the Eventbrite link below:
Thursday 16th February 2023, 9am-10.30am via Zoom (Online)
We will be running one session per month for the foreseeable future and will add these to our Eventbrite page as they become available: North & West Bristol Locality Partnership Events | Eventbrite
