Enter & View: Bishop's Stortford Dental Visits

Working with a group from Bishop's House in East Herts, we've created a tailored Enter & View training package for people with Learning Disabilities. Over four seperate sessions our volunteers have worked hard and last week saw the first

visits! The reports will be out shortly, but after the hard work was done Paul was lucky enough to have a chance to sit down with our newest volunteers and find out what they thought of the whole experience.

Part of the shake-up here at Healthwatch Hertfordshire means that our Quality Improvement Sub Committee (QISC) have now met for the last time. Though the work they 've overseen will still be happening, the Sub Committee have had their last curled sandwich lunch. Thanks for all the hard work everyone!
