The Manchester Self-Care Steering Group (which includes Macc, Inspiring Change Manchester and Stroke Association) is organising an event on Jan 25th to bring together practitioners, service managers, policy makers, strategic coordinators, academics, and campaigners who want to champion an enabling self-care approach in Manchester. The essence of this approach is a collaborative trusting relationship between people (service users) and practitioners (service providers) which recognises the strengths that people who use services have and is focused on helping them to achieve what is important to them. The strategy developed by the steering group can be read here.
The event will be held on 25th January, from 9.00-12.30 at the Irish World Heritage Centre, 1 Irish Town Way Manchester M8 OAE. If you are interested in coming please contact [email protected].
