Event description: The Council for Disabled Children are developing a 3 year department of Health funded project to which aims to help parents and carers of disabled children and young people navigate and better understand the health system and how it might work to improve outcomes for their child. PACC and PODs (Telford Forum) have been approached to run a trial of the workshop that will form part of the programme. The workshop will be held in Shrewsbury and will run from 9.30 am to 2.30 pm, lunch will be provided. The training will be delivered by parent carers who have extensive knowledge of health services and are experienced trainers. This is a great opportunity for Shropshire and Telford parent carers to benefit from an increased understanding of how to access health services and how to work with health professionals. Since it is a trial workshop all those who attend will be asked to provide feedback on the structure, content and delivery of the workshop. Places are limited to 16 parent carers.
