Staff and volunteers spent the day engaged in making sure your views and experiences of using local health and social care services are gathered, analysed and acted on to help inform future decision making.

We are proud to support The Warriors of Wellbeing, a group of local organisations that includes Avon & Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership (AWP), North Somerset Council Public Health and 1 in 4 People.

This free festival focussed on wellbeing activities such as art, singing, Tai Chi and live music. A local consultant psychiatrist had her head shaved which raised £1.5k towards the Headlight Mental Health Charity to buy the UKs first ‘magic table’ for sound and light activities, for patients in the Dementia Ward at Weston General Hospital.
