Guest speakers for a local group
Being able to find guest speakers for a local group, informing them, and giving a better understanding of how services work. Through regular engagement and working together with a local group, they told us they were interested in hearing about different health topics, which impact themselves and their loved ones.
We listened and acted on this and were able to reach out to some of our contacts and arrange for local experts who were keen to attend the group meetings and deliver free talks about relevant subjects. Which included diabetes, lung screening, and arthritis, to name a few.
What difference did this make
Keeping in regular contact with the group they have thanked us for giving them the opportunity to hear and learn valuable information, which will not only benefit them but also, people they care for. Their knowledge has greatly improved around various health subjects, they have a better understanding of important health topics and how to access support locally, improving their long-term health outcomes.
