- Date: Wednesday 22nd May 2024
- Time: 10:00 AM - 13:00 PM
This event is a great opportunity to deliver in-person street-based community outreach, where you will work in teams to engage with women and ask them just three key questions regarding their views on health. Whilst capturing their answers using a quick and easy survey form.
This key community outreach will help our Public Health Teams and NHS colleagues learn how best to improve local health services to meet women’s needs.
