Unity in the Community - Next Meeting Announced

Reading Time 1 minute
Date 13 September 2023
Please note the change of venue this time - Hamilton Academical Event Space.

The next meeting of Unity in the Community - the locality network for Hamilton, Larkhall and Blantyre will be held on Wednesday 4 October, 10:30 - 14:30 at the Hamilton Academical Event Space

Following the Hamilton, Larkhall & Blantyre Third Sector Locality Network event, VASLan will deliver a workshop focusing on the Integrated Care Fund (ICF).

The fund, first made available to South Lanarkshire’s third sector in 2017 to deliver positive health and wellbeing outcomes for communities across South Lanarkshire, will return for a 2024-26 round. We want to hear what messages you would like the Health & Social Care Partnership to hear regarding the fund's future and, within each strategic commissioning priority, where you think resources should be directed.

Please take the opportunity to come along and ensure that your organisation’s voice is heard in shaping the 2024-26 round of the fund. 

Following on from feedback from the last session, we are focusing on networking. We hope to have some good outcomes from round table discussions on where we can collaborate, share experiences and help one another.

Agenda 10:30 - 12:30

  • Tea and coffee on arrival
  • Introduction and Welcome from Hugh Cairns - LAMH
  • Update - VASLAN
  • Speed networking - 15 mins session and then move around.
  • Open discussion on findings.

Agenda 12:30 - 2:00

The locality meeting ends, and the VASLAN session begins.
