BME event update - 6 months on

Report - 7 September 2016

A brief update on what we’ve done in the 6 months since the BME Event

In December 2015 we held an event to hear from people from BME backgrounds about their experiences of health and social care services in Sheffield.

We heard about primary care, hospitals, mental health services, and social care.

What have we done in the past 6 months? 

  • We have shared what people told us with partner organisations and considered it as part of our Adult Social Care report.
  • We have visited lots of groups from different communities across the City and our Outreach team have delivered some sessions in community languages or members of the community have translated for us.
  • The information on Mental Health has been included in our report on Mental Health Crisis Care – Before, During and After Crisis due out soon.
