We are meeting this coming Wednesday 9th March at our usual time of 6 -
7:45pm at Manchester Carers Centre, 12-18 Pollard Street, M4 7AN. For
directions see below.
Our speaker this month is Val Bayliss-Brideaux from Manchester Clinical
Commissioning Groups (CCGs are responsible for making decisions about
health services that are provided across much of Manchester). She is coming
to get our feedback on a new 5-year health and social care plan from
Manchester CCGs and Manchester City Council. You can read a copy of the plan here http://www.manchesterccgs.nhs.uk/download.cfm?doc=docm93jijm4n3311.pdf&ver=4205 and Val will be running through it at the meeting. She has
provided a link to a survey which asks for ideas to improve health and
social care outcomes in Manchester - here's the link (feel free to complete
before or after the meeting): https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/82XBK5M
CCGs commission a large chunk of mental health services so this is a good
opportunity for us to emphasise how important it is that service users and
carers are involved in service design and delivery - research has shown
that involving people using mental health services can save up to 7% of
budgets.
If you would like a paper copy of the plan, please email
talkinghealthmanchester@nhs.net and these can be posted out to you.
Directions to Manchester Carers Centre
