Health Workshop with ACCA -Stockport PCT & Stockport LINks.

Tuesday October 7th at 5.30 - 7.30pm (Food included)

Location:Well Being Centre, Graylaw House, Chestergate, Stockport, SK1 1LZ

Stockport PCT & Stockport Local Involvement Network (the LINk) want to hear your views about your health needs and the health services you receive. We recognise that people from different ethnic groups and people of different religious backgrounds have varying health needs and expectations and we want to ensure that our services understand these needs and are responding to them.

But to help us do this we need to hear your views and thoughts!

We will be holding a workshop with ACCA which will provide us with an opportunity to talk to people from Stockport’s Black & Caribbean community on Tuesday October 7th at 5.30 - 7.30pm (buffet food included).

The feedback and information gathered from this workshop will be used to inform the development of the PCTs Single Equality Scheme which, in part, will address and set priorities around the varying health inequalities and needs of Stockport’s Black and Minority Ethnic communities. Feedback will also be used to inform the future work of Stockport LINks, which, when launched in October, will be a forum through which local people can influence local health and social care services, as both the Council and the PCT are required to listen and respond to its findings.

We understand that giving feedback to people who have given up their time to talk to us about our services is important, and so we commit to providing participants with feedback on the workshop and how any information has been used. We will do this via ACCA, and will do so by December.

For further information about the workshop please contact Collette Upton on 0161 426 5707 or collette.upton@stockport-pct.nhs.uk or, for information on Stockport LINk please call Maria Kildunne on 477 8479
