Meeting: 25/01/2018 - Health and Wellbeing Board (Item 84)

Question submitted by Richard Carrow to the Chairman of the Health and Wellbeing Board

“A number of charities offer befriending services, among them Macmillan Cancer Support for those undergoing cancer treatment.  As Lead Volunteer for Newbury I have noticed substantially fewer referrals in the last couple of years for practical or emotional befriending support.  What practical measures would the Board consider helpful in signposting this type of assistance across the CCG that the voluntary sector - and Macmillan in particular - can provide?”
