Healthy Futures – Tuesday 11th November 2014 at St Andrew's Church, Moretonhampstead

Moretonhampstead Action Group for Sustainability (MAGS) is helping to host a public meeting and talk about sustainable healthcare.

Tuesday 11th November at
St. Andrew's Church, Moretonhampstead.

We aim to make the evening accessible to as many people as possible, so we are offering refreshments and free children's activities in The Yard Youth Club.

About our speakers:
Dr Niall Macleod G.P. currently practices in Heavitree and has inspiring and innovative ideas about sustainable health care.
Emma Bagwell is District Matron and manages the planning and provision of care for patients in the community.

During the evening we will:
  • make a connection between the wider context of NHS Devon and what is happening in Moretonhampstead
  • provide information about the transformation of the Moretonhampstead Cottage Hospital into a Health Hub
  • encourage debate about the balance of preventive and acute healthcare within the NHS and our communities
  • get everyone interested in how this could affect the choices we make for the Health Hub
  • obtain feedback about what people want to see as part of the Health Hub. 

The evening is planned as follows:

5pm Doors open at St Andrew's Church – all welcome for refreshments. Choice of seasonal veggie soup available for a £1 donation.
6pm Emma Bagwell: Introduction and update on the Health Hub
6:15pm Dr. Niall Macleod: Sustainable Healthcare
