Jamil Hussain Expert by Experience, Cygnet / Lived Experience Network (LENs)
My current role at Cygnet Brunel, Crow Lane Bristol, is that I am a EByE (Expert By Experience). This role involves me going into the hospital and helping make positive changes and listen to service users and support them with day to day activities. Also lost importantly this is to be there and help them see that being in cygnet is just a start of a journey and that there is light at the end of the tunnel as I am living proof of that.
Irwin Mitchell Speaker - details to be confirmed
All this and an opportunity to network with individuals across a wide range of disciplines and pathways - this is an ideal opportunity to tell people what you do, share best practice and build contacts as well as hear great speakers. Light refreshments available.
All this for free - yes I know its amazing.. but what we would ideally like you to do is register as a member of UKABIF. A national charity which believes that by bringing together all parties with an interest in ABI we have a stronger voice. https://ukabif.org.uk/general/pick_username.asp
