Working Together to Live Well with the ongoing impact of COVID-19: Free online seminar, Monday 29 June 2020, 2.30pm-4.30pm
Developing Healthy Communities
This is a free event
The restrictions created by COVID-19 on our day to day lives are affecting our physical, mental and social well-being as well as exacerbating inequalities.
Statutory agencies and community and voluntary sector organisations have been responding creatively and finding new ways of working together.
This online seminar, organised by the Derry and Strabane Healthy City and District initiative, brings together people from both the public and community and voluntary sectors who are at the frontline of the response. Participants will share their experiences and explore how we can all build on what we have learned to find new ways of working together in the future.
The seminar will also feature the launch of Developing Healthy Communities’ report Living Well with the ongoing impact of COVID-19, which draws on findings of their recent survey, and learning from the local Community Mobilisation Hub, led by WHSCT in response to the COVID-19 crisis.
All are welcome to take part. We especially encourage anyone in public or third sector organisations involved with helping people deal with the challenges of the pandemic in the Derry City and Strabane District area.
The programme includes:
- A Healthy City and District response to COVID-19, Developing Healthy Communities Report launch, Mayor of Derry and Strabane, Cllr Brian Tierney
- Working together during a time of COVID-19, Paul Cavanagh, Commissioning Lead (West), Health and Social Care Board
- Living Well with the ongoing impact of COVID-19, a view from the C&V sector, Erin Richardson, Chief Executive, Developing Healthy Cities
- Sharing the learning from the Community Mobilisation Hub, Seamus Ward, Head of Health Improvement, WHSCT
- Breakouts / Group Discussion, on:
- How do we build on the potential for shared working in the future, taking into account the learning that we have explored?
- How do we build on existing structures and relationships to improve our day to day working?
This online event will be delivered via Zoom.
