Unpaid carers event (December 2017) 

West Yorkshire and Harrogate (WY&H) Health and Care Partnership held an unpaid carers event on Thursday 14 December 2017 at St. Swithuns Centre in Wakefield.

The event was the first of its kind across WY&H which was to start conversations with unpaid carers and representatives from carers organisations. The aim of the event was to build on the work to date and heighten the profile of carers in a more holistic way and recognise and celebrate what is happening already across WY&H and identify good practice.

Guest speakers on the day included:

  • Rob Webster West Yorkshire and Harrogate, Health and Care Partnership, CEO Lead
  • Emily Holzhausen OBE from Carers UK
  • Fatima Khan-Shah, Partnership Lead for Carers
  • Neil Churchill from NHS England.
