No recourse to public funds (NRPF): Understanding challenges, barriers, and experiences of people under NRPF webinar is taking place on Thursday 17 October from 12:30pm-2:00pm.
Register for the webinar
A key strategic objective for East London Foundation Trust (ELFT) is improving population health, using the principles as set out by Professor Sir Michael Marmot in Fair Society, Healthy Lives. This includes supporting service users, carers, and the communities we service to achieve a healthy standard of living.
We know there are challenges for people with No Recourse to Public Funds to achieve this goal, and that understanding how we can best help can be challenging for health care providers.
We are therefore bringing this webinar together to:
- Help raise awareness of what we mean by No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF) and how this can impact peoples access to health care support.
- Understand what population groups may be affected by NRPF and what this looks like in some of the care services we support.
- Provide health and care staff with advice on how best to support people with NRPF
We will be hearing from many expert speakers as well as those with lived experiences.
Speakers:
- Anna Miller, Doctors of the World
- Stephanie Simeon, Luton Citizens Advice Bureau
- Jess Potter, Patients not Passports
- Peter Buchman, Pathways
- Maria Iglesias, Praxis
