Get Involved in Getting There: Meadowbank

Posted on April 1, 2016

The Getting There: Meadowbank project aims to improve the lives of people living in the Meadowbank Health Centre catchment area – and we need your help in designing the research.

The next meeting of the project will be on Tuesday 12^th April, 11am – 3pm at the offices of CVS Falkirk, Callendar Business Park, Falkirk FK1 1XR. The focus of the meeting will be on discussing and deciding on the inquiry questions that will be used in the project, along with designing the activities that will be used with both organisations and individuals who live, work and study in the area.

CVS Falkirk would like to invite representatives from organisations who operate in the areas serviced by the Meadowbank Health Centre to join us at the meeting and help to move this project to the next stage.

For further information, please contact David Gardener by email: david@cvsfalkirk.org.uk, or phone: 01324 692010.
