New survey on our mental health hub
We are aware, through our work, that people who have a “dual diagnosis” i.e. have a mental illness and co-existing use of alcohol or drugs, often fall between services. We plan to look into the services available for people in this situation, and to identify gaps, problems and any good practice in Suffolk and North East Essex (SNEE)that can be shared.
To make sure we hear from as many people as possible we have created a new confidential survey in which we
ask for your experience, good or bad, either personally, or as a family member/friend. Go to https://www.letstalksnee.co.uk/dual-diagnosis-improvement-survey/surveys/dual-diagnosis-improvement-survey to share your views.

Research IS for me! A workshop funded by the NIHR (National Institute for Health & Care Research)
Thinklusive are hosting an interactive workshop for people with a learning disability to gain skills and confidence around research projects and studies.
People with learning disabilities are an under-represented group across health and care research. We know that people with learning disabilities face unequal treatment in the NHS compared to other people.
They experience barriers in accessing healthcare and unequal treatment and have poorer outcomes from the healthcare they receive. Despite accessing mainstream healthcare like everyone else, people with learning disabilities are often excluded from research. Therefore, we don’t always know what the best treatments are for them, or what research is most important to them.
For research to become more inclusive, we need to empower individuals, families, carers and support teams to understand more about the importance of research.
We are inviting you to a workshop all about research. This is the first of 3 workshops held in Summer/Autumn 2025.
The workshops will be run by Thinklusive and supported by a research nurse from East Suffolk and North Essex Foundation Trust (ESNEFT).
The workshops are open to adults with learning disabilities, families, carers and support teams.
Through this interactive workshop, you will gain skills and confidence around research projects and studies.
Time and date: Thursday 21 August, 2 - 4:30 pm
Workshop location: Wolsey Room, Ipswich County Library, Northgate Street, Ipswich, IP1 3DE

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.

Carers Voices
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.

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.
