Physician Associates
We are conducting a survey to gather valuable feedback on the role of Physician Associates (PAs) within our local healthcare system. As an integral part of multidisciplinary teams, PAs support doctors in providing high-quality patient care, but we want to understand more about how they are perceived, their effectiveness, and any areas for improvement.
Your feedback is essential in guiding improvements. By sharing your experiences, you can help shape the future of physician associate practice, ensuring they continue to enhance access to care and improve patient outcomes. The responses will be used to inform policy decisions, optimise training programs, and refine the integration of PAs into the healthcare system.
Go to https://www.letstalksnee.co.uk/physician-associates/surveys/physician-associates to share your thoughts and experiences.

Healthwatch Essex are running a survey to gather information about unpaid carers and employment.
For many unpaid carers, balancing employment with caring responsibilities can be an uphill struggle. Carers often face significant barriers to securing meaningful and sustainable employment. This survey produced on behalf of Essex County Council aims to explore those barriers and provide better insights to inform the changes needed by policymakers, employers, and support organisations.

Loneliness Reduction Training Coming to West Suffolk!
Do you work for a Suffolk organisation that is connected to people experiencing loneliness? These can be organisations that promote social, mental, and physical wellbeing. If so, then Norfolk & Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust in collaboration with Civil Society Consulting and other partners invite you to book onto their new loneliness reduction training.
In recent years, social changes in the UK, including increased reliance on technology and weakened community bonds, which was exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, have made social connections harder to establish naturally. As a result, loneliness is becoming a nationwide epidemic. Loneliness is a key contributor to various physical and mental health conditions, including cognitive decline. Loneliness can trigger symptoms like chronic stress, a weakened immune system, and high blood pressure, increasing the risk of cardiovascular diseases, dementia, and other chronic illnesses that can significantly impact overall well-being and longevity.
In 2020, the Campaign to End Loneliness enlisted Civil Society Consulting (CSC) to transform their research into an interactive training course. Since then, CSC has piloted and developed the training with over 150 people in a wide range of places in the UK: Norfolk, Rochdale, Tameside, Tees Valley and Stoke-on-Trent. They have also developed another resource, called 32 Steps to Togetherness.
By the end of the training, 90% of participants had a strong understanding of loneliness and its impacts, while 85% developed a clear and motivated plan to tackle loneliness in their area. CSC is now working with the Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust and other local partners to expand the training to West Suffolk.
About the training
The training is currently aimed at grassroots organisations or statutory sector professionals working within the local area who are connected to people experiencing loneliness. However, the course can be adapted for all.
The workshops are to be split over two days. They will run from 10am-12:30pm on both days:
Day 1: Participants will develop a deep understanding of loneliness learning the theory and psychology behind it.
Day 2: Participants will collaboratively discuss and co-produce a strategic approach/plan to tackle loneliness in local area, including partnership working.
Each participant will receive a printed copy of CSC’s Loneliness Reduction Training Handbook on the day.
The dates to save in your diaries are the 4^th and 5^th of June 2025.
The training will be held at the Haverhill Arts Centre.
Address: High Street, Haverhill, CB9 8AR.
