Notes taken by: Joan
Overall – update since the launch on Jan 29, thoughts, and next steps: –
1 CCGs and funding relational counselling
Paul was contacted by a group in Gateshead who liaise with local GPs about counselling/therapy sessions, time-limited in the first instance but with flexibility.
Rebecca spoke about similar ideas and an interview in her Hackney Gaia community. Joan will contact the GP colleague in her Balint group who is involved with Barnet Wellbeing Hub and social prescribing.
2 Training
The Training group has got off to a good start, described in Marshas notes.
3 Website, Blogging and Resources working group
is to meet at 7 on Thursday 7 April. Paul would like to devote time and attention to content. A Website and Resources managers are needed.
4 Media Group couldn’t find anything about this meeting?
5 Regional Groups
20 have signed up on the google sheet showing interest throughout the UK. There are 700 odd on Pauls mailing list.
We agreed it would be good to meet each other in person. Rebecca volunteered to organise something informal for London based folk.
Paul to put out email to all suggesting regional uACT hubs.
Perhaps aim for this before organising a next UK wide follow up to the launch?
