More than 300 people shared their experiences of using the NHS App with us. We looked at how confident people in Gloucestershire feel using the app, the impact of digital exclusion, and the barriers that prevent people from using the app.

More than 25 people from Hong Kong, Ukraine, Vietnam and the UK took part in a varenyky (traditional Ukrainian dumplings) workshop this week.

It was an opportunity to learn more about Ukrainian food and culture, and for different communities supported by our resettlement team to come together, share traditions and build new connections.

Easter celebrations! 🐣

Our resettlement team, along with some amazing volunteers, hosted an Easter party in Yate. We had 72 people attend, with a wonderful mix of families from our communities.

We were supported by Healthwatch Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire who collected feedback about local health and social care services and ran a Japanese painting activity.

Other activities were run by our Ukrainian volunteers, including a Easter egg hunt which was enjoyed by both children and parents!
