Dear all,
Apologies for the large group email, but I have worked with so many wonderful people who have championed, advocated for, and celebrated the babies, children, young people, and their families of our region over the past six and a half years. On my last day in the Child Health and Wellbeing Network, I wanted to share a short update, I have attached this week’s Child Health Tuesday which has the wider overview.
From next week, following the organisational restructure, I will be starting in the Mental Health, Learning Disabilities and Neurodiversity team here at the NENC ICB, as a Commissioning Manager. My email address and phone number will remain the same. I don’t yet know exactly what the role will involve, but I’m really looking forward to finding out 😊
I also wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey. I’ve loved learning, collaborating, and working with you all on some truly amazing projects and opportunities (far too many to name individually!). The legacy of this work lives on and, while the difference made is often hard to measure, it is significant.
If useful, this short document provides a brief overview of the Network’s work: cdn.healthiertogether.nhs.uk/docs/Celebrating_Our_Network_final.pdf
More information is also available on the Healthier Together – Child Health and Wellbeing Network website. Current projects will be handed over in the coming weeks, and please do get in touch if you have any questions during that time.
As ever there is always an ask, and on behalf on the young people we would like to hear from you and your involvement in the Network!
Following recent reflections gathered through the joint Children and Young People’s SOG meeting with the Know Our Impact (KOI) Youth Board, we are keen to gather further insight from professionals across the network. This link below is an opportunity to share your thoughts, experiences and reflections on the Child Health and Wellbeing Network.
Responses will contribute to an ongoing piece of artwork celebrating the Network and capturing its collective voice and impact. The form includes three questions and should take less than five minutes to complete. Reflections may also be shared more widely.
Child Health & Wellbeing Network – Personal Reflections – Fill out form
Please complete the form by COP Tuesday 5th May.
Thank you so much for your time, support, and contribution over the years.
Please do stay in touch, take care, and I really hope our paths cross again.
Warm wishes,
Emilia
