Summer Promises a Number of Changes Locally Summer promises a number of changes locally May has been a busy time for everyone – do you remember the scorching first weekend when temperatures hit the high twenties, we all rushed out to sort out our summer bedding and were bidding goodbye to what felt like an interminable autumn/winter/spring rolled into one! For CommUNITY Barnet we started to deliver a new Healthwatch and NHS Complaints Advocacy in Newham from the start of the month - Mike and I with the wider Healthwatch team have been working hard together across three disparate and unique London boroughs. It has been stimulating to say the least and our successful public meeting in Brent in mid-May confirmed the strength of our partnership model. Darlington Solicitors delivered their first legal briefing on end of life care planning to local voluntary and community organisations and residents to plan for their future and end-of-life and to signpost them to further help and support. We hope this will be the first of a series of legal seminars that we can offer to local voluntary, community and charity organisations. Consultation on the Children and Young People’s Plan is drawing to a close on 26 May and I would urge you all to have a look at this document and make your comments through the online survey which can be accessed here. Finally, London has a new Mayor - little is known about his commitment to the voluntary and community sector – but he has said that he wants to be a mayor for all Londoners – but his story of success, tenacity and hard work is one that resonates with many Barnet residents and is evident in the continued vibrancy displayed in our sector.
