el passionately about the core objectives of:
• Prioritising services and activities that deliver face-to-face medical/clinic sessions – one-to-one, group or family format, for patients with clinicians
• Providing medical/health support services for children and adults of all ages, across general needs e.g. mental health, through to specific conditions e.g. Parkinson's or dementia.
• Promoting food quality and access to healthier eating, alongside support for those in need.
• Consulting with the community to identify and strive to meet other health-related needs. We are actively working with the NHS, GP surgery and other health-related charities, to bring the Edward Hain building back to life again. We welcome input from volunteers and well-wishers. With our supporting League of Friends group stronger than ever, its focus on community and fundraising efforts continues to help us to reach our aims.
