17 April | West Yorkshire Power of Communities VCSE Session

Date: Thursday 17 April 2025
Time: 11 am – 12:30 pm
Location: Online

The West Yorkshire Power of Communities Programme Board have developed a series of sessions open to a wider set of VCSE representatives with direct experience in those areas to shape and contribute to key strategic priorities within the West Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership.

The West Yorkshire Mental Health and Wellbeing Hub provides a range of services including a self-referral option into their psychological assessment and therapy service, specially set up to help you. It is available to everyone working or volunteering in the health and care system. Wellbeing is a top priority across West Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership. No matter what job you do or where you are based. However, we know that staff and volunteers from VCSE organisations are less likely to access the Hub’s offers.

Led by the Hub, Tim Norton (Service Manager), Kerry Hinsby (Lead Consultant Clinical and Forensic Psychologist) and Clare Taylor (Training and Engagement Manager – this session will focus on:

• Development of the VCSE Mental Health Wellbeing Hub Champions
• How the Hub can better engage with VCSE organisations
• What specific needs and approaches can the Hub adopt to better support the mental health and wellbeing of staff and volunteers in the VCSE sector
