The session will be held on Thursday, June 12 between 11.30am-2pm.
Poverty proofing seeks to identify and overcome some of the barriers people may face in accessing services owing to having less financial resource.
Children North East, a charity that has been working with NHS trusts alongside schools and cultural organisations, will be sharing examples of their work and impact.
There will also be an opportunity to consider how this relates to work at ELFT and the work of partner organisations.
The session is the second in a series of lunchtime webinars organised for guests to learn, reflect and discuss what the population health topic means in terms of how we work as an NHS Trust and with partners across place.
They are open for all Trust colleagues, service users, carers, governors, members and ICB colleagues, voluntary sector partners and local authority public health teams from North East London (NEL) and Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes (BLMK).
The first webinar was held on Match 5 with the topic ‘how do we measure and understand high levels of poverty? What can we do to reduce its impact on health?’
“Our hope is that this series of lunchtime webinars will promote awareness and discussion about how everyone can contribute to improving the health and wellbeing of the communities we serve,” said Laura Austin Croft, ELFT Director of Population Health.
