You can help us shape the future development of Healthy Together (Health Visiting and School Nursing) using your own experience of the service.
The Healthy Together Parent/Carer Network, open to users of Leicestershire Partnership Trust services, their carers and family members, is where you can share your lived experiences with Healthy Together. You will help to inform how we shape our services to fit the changing needs of our local communities.
You can get involved from home too. We can engage with you via your preferred method of contact such as email, phone, virtual online meetings/working groups or by post. The network can also send out information to you in the post or via email.
You can help us:
- Shape future contacts and information shared with families, children and young people
- Support quality improvement initiatives to develop existing services
