Are you looking for ways to make meal planning and preparation easier while living with multiple sclerosis (MS)? Join us on Tuesday 01 October at 2pm for an informative session, Mastering Meal Planning and Preparation with MS, presented by Jenna Cox, a registered nutritional therapist who lives with MS herself.
This event is aimed at safeguarding leads and staff working in the voluntary and community sector who are involved in identifying and responding to safeguarding concerns.
Attending will give you the opportunity to find out more about the local Safeguarding Adults Board and share your views on adult safeguarding practice and the key issues facing vulnerable adults in our borough.
On 18th September 2024, at the “Towards Equity in Health” summit at Imperial College London, Lord Darzi and Sir Professor Michael Marmot presented their insights on the future of the NHS and the importance of addressing health inequalities. Below is an update from NAVCA, summarising key findings from the report, along with implications and opportunities for the VCSE sector, LIOs, and ICS-VCSE Alliances.
