The
'Really Important Questions' (RIQ) Annual Conference
Tuesday 21 October from 9.30am to 3.30pm at Dukinfield Town Hall
Meet the people who manage social care services in Tameside.
This conference is for anyone aged 50+ interested in local social care
and health services. It is an opportunity to find out about social care
and health services and have a greater say about how these services
should develop. Managers from a wide range of services in the Council,
Health organisations and the voluntary sector will be at the conference
to hear what people need.
This year the conference will focus on the Government’s new vision for
adult social care services. Adult social care services needs to change
in a way that allows older people to have the best possible quality of
life and live full and purposeful lives. What needs to be done to make
this vision a reality? This is an opportunity to take part in discussion
groups and say what you think needs to be done.
The conference is free of charge and lunch and refreshments will be
provided. Access needs can also be arranged. The RIQ conference is very
popular so early booking is essential. Please contact the conference
organisers for a booking form.

Youth groups think big
17 September, 5.30pm-7pm at T3SC
Do you provide
a service for young people aged 11- 19?
T3SC is holding a joint session with Tameside Council’s Youth Service
and local voluntary, community and faith groups working with young
people in Tameside. In order to provide the best service we can for
young people we need to put our heads together and think big!
Do you know what the young people of your area want to do?
What service could you be providing for young people now, in the near
future and, even in five years time?
We will be
looking at all sorts of opportunities where we could work together in
the future, including funding (myplace and other sources) and learning
opportunities.
