Using your lived experience & getting involved (Nov)

• Wednesday 16th November
• 2 - 4:30pm
• Age UK Community Hub (Leeds City Centre)

 

Using your personal understanding of mental health challenges or supporting someone else as a carer – is valuable experience.

Your knowledge and personal experience can really help to encourage improvements.  It can give hope to others and helps us all find new approaches and ways of working. That could be by;

• Joining a service user or care network
• Giving your views
• Join a working group with NHS staff
• Co-facilitating with the Leeds Recovery College
• Taking on a role as a Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust Volunteer

 

In this workshop you’ll find out more about why your experience is so valuable and how you can get involved with Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.

 

In this workshop, we will:

• Talk about the Leeds and York Partnership mental health and learning disability services and the ways you can get involved
• Discuss how sharing your lived experience supports how services develop and how that benefits people that use them
• Learn about opportunities where you can get involved with the Trust and we’ll answer any questions that you may have

This workshop is delivered in partnership with the Leeds and York Partnership NHS foundation trust service user network, for more information please click here
