Community Engagement in the NHS Online Workshops
June 26 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
FreeNHS Scotland has announced the launch of a new series of quarterly online workshops, aimed at raising awareness and promoting understanding of community engagement within the health service.
The first session, titled “What is Community Engagement in the NHS?”, will be held via MS Teams on Thursday 26 June 2025, 11am – 12pm. This introductory workshop will explore the fundamentals of community engagement, its importance, and the benefits of meaningful involvement from patients, service users, and the wider public.
Key aims of the session include:
- defining what “community engagement” means in a NHS context
- explaining why engagement matters for effective healthcare delivery
- highlighting the diverse ways people can get involved and influence NHS services
The initiative is designed to encourage open dialogue, and ensure that communities have a voice in shaping the future of healthcare services.
A poster promoting the event is available in pdf and jpeg formats (both linked for your convenience) and can be shared with colleagues, volunteers, and service users who may wish to attend.
