Triborough Palliative care review – feedback deadline 13 February

NHS S- Central London CCG Logo

The survey for the palliative care review is still open and we’re keen to gather as much feedback as possible from people who have had an experience of these services across Kensington & Chelsea, Hammersmith & Fulham and Westminster.

Update on the review
Thank you to those who I have met already to inform this review. Since the review opened I have met with a number of groups of professionals and talked to over 40 people individually ranging from specialist level providers in both acute and community and inpatient settings, community nurses, GP’s, local authorities, CCG’s and Continuing Health Care teams, key national organisations and other experts in the field.

I have also met a number of patients at local Patient Reference Groups, Healthwatch meetings and am in the process of going into hospices to meet with patient and carer groups. More of these events and a dedicated focus group organised by the BME forum are still to come.

We would welcome any further opportunities to speak directly to patients about their experience of palliative care as part of this call to evidence. If you know of any opportunities to do so, we are keen to hear from you, please do get in contact.

Complete the survey
The survey can be completed in less than 5 minutes, for patients, carers and relatives it can be accessed here http://bit.ly/palliative-care-views. For staff and other interested parties including providers and key stakeholders it can be accessed here http://bit.ly/palliativecare-services . Alternative formats continue to be available on our website. Please continue to help to share this widely, the deadline of 13 February 2019 is approaching.

Help shape the future of North End Road – give your views in H&F Council’s online survey

LBHF logo and link

Hammersmith & Fulham Council is investing in a community-led redesign of North End Road in Fulham – and would love to know what you think.

Since 2014, the council has been working hard with businesses, traders and residents to improve North End Road as a thriving retail and food destination.

And now it is ready to move to the next stage.

“We want to do things with residents and businesses, not to them,” said Cllr Andrew Jones, H&F Cabinet Member for the Economy and the Arts. “This is why we’re asking local people and businesses to share their ideas and suggestions on how we can improve North End Road to live and work in and visit – all part of our plan to make H&F the best place to live, work and play in Europe.”

Complete the online survey here: Tell us what you think

Survey closes on Friday 22 February

Give your views directly
H&F Council has already been talking to shopkeepers, market traders, community representatives and local community groups.

Based on what they said, the council is putting together an initial wish list of possible future improvements. Some of these will be small and quick, others will be long-term projects which need more investment.

All residents are invited to view and give their opinions on the wish list on 8 February (from 2pm to 6pm) and 9 February (from 10am to 2pm) at St John’s Church, North End Road, Fulham (Click Here for a map)

Based on the responses to this and the online questionnaire, the council will come up with a plan for the way forward, which will involve further consultation.

You can follow the progress of this project at www.northendroad.com or contact us at northendroad@lbhf.gov.uk.
