More information: Here's more information from the team at SWYFT:

The way we provide older adult’s mental health care is changing.

We are improving our services to make sure they continue to meet people’s needs and offer the best care and outcomes for our service users. We have listened to what service users, carers, partners and staff have told us so far and we would like to talk to you about our ideas for improvement. 

As part of our ongoing engagement we are keen to meet with people from different groups. On Tuesday 30 April we are holding a workshop and are especially keen to engage with older adults from the South Asian community and with family members / carers of someone with mental health issues.

If you would like join us to discuss please book a place by calling 07867 787409 or email yasmin.arshad@swyt.nhs.uk 

Refreshments will be provided and travel expenses can be claimed back from the team at SWYFT.
