Regional network involving service users, carers, staff and commissioners - sharing best practice and improving quality in secure mental health services
Last week we were busy sending out Christmas cards and an update to our West Yorkshire forensic Carers🎄
We know Christmas can be a difficult time, especially for those who may not be able to spend it with their loved ones.
Remember, WE ARE HERE TO SUPPORT YOU❤️
Thank you to @WaterlooManor for inviting us to your #SummerFest23#CarnivalDay we had a great time! The rain definitely didn't dull your sparkle💫🎪✨️🕺🎤 well done to all involved in organising👏
What a fantastic time we had celebrating #carersweek2023 at @allofusinmind event! It was amazing to see the truly inspiring carer engagement across the trust and meet lovely people☺️ It ended with a creative workshop to ‘take a moment’ and remember to take care of yourself❤️
💜 Our recovery and outcomes team welcomed Holly and Julianne from the Yorkshire and Humber Involvement Network today at Ridgeway.
Patients had the opportunity to collaborate and hear how we work with @YumberNetwork and suggested future activities they'd like to take part in.
