Halton Older Peoples Expert Panel (HOPE) has been busy in the last year or so despite the challenges we’ve all faced. They have been holding virtual sessions and last week just a few of their panel members met up for a Panel Picnic.

The loss of a loved one can be hard to bear, help and support is available for you and your family.
As more restrictions are being lifted and we are trying to get back to some kind of normal, the Halton Health Improvement Team realise you may be seeing an increase in people looking for support or that your staff themselves need support. They are conscious that the impact of the last 17 months may well last for some time yet.
With this in mind they thought it may be useful to book in some training sessions that you can all access for yourselves or your staff. You may have new staff, or staff who require a refresher as they have previously attended their training.
The North West Regional Team are looking to recruit a Funding Officer to join them in assessing requests for funding and managing grants for a 6 month period.
You will bring local knowledge, best practice, thematic expertise, and the experience of customers and stakeholders to improve grant making and inform decision making. By working closely with people and communities in the North West, you will understand what matters to them and where funding can make the biggest difference.
