Viewpoint Update: February 2019

As part of our role working closer with Viewpoint we will be bringing you regular updates on the work that they are doing.

Viewpoint is reviewing its service and is doing this in a variety of ways. We have developed a User Council for those with lived experience to help guide and shape how we do things going forward. On the 18th January we had a Dragons Den event in which we asked people what they would like Viewpoint to provide and where there were gaps in services for people with mental health and addiction challenges. We had some great pitches and we would like to take forward all of the ideas in some way. We have also engaged in Co-production meetings with our members to look at how we gather the views of people and feedback on the progress of views and ideas around services.

Viewpoint is a user involvement charity in Hertfordshire for people with mental health or drug and alcohol problems separate from Healthwatch Hertfordshire.
