Tina Curran and I had a fabulous day in the High Peak on Monday 28 July 2025. We held information stands at both Cavendish and Buxton hospitals. Professionals from both sites visited the stands and we informed them of our Hconnect project and how they can access training via our Learning and Development programme, Call for Carers. 🙂
 
We had some great conversations with some Carers who were very pleased to report about the positive support they had received from Derbyshire Carers Assocation.💙
 
Watch this space for more dates popping up in both hospitals where Tina and I will be on hand to support Carers and professionals in relation to the Hconnect project.
 
Many thanks
