A brilliant turn out today at the Carer’s info and support event, at the Simpson Day Service in MK. Thanks to everyone who came along - around 50 residents with dementia and their carers. There was loads of useful info for anyone navigating dementia - either for themselves, or a loved one.

Do you live with chronic pelvic pain? This study is an anonymous online survey which takes around 15-20 minutes to complete. It explores the way that people with chronic pelvic pain understand their identity. In particular, it explores whether this is linked to social support, mental health, pain beliefs, living according to values and the impact of pain on day-to-day life.

The study has been ethically approved by the

Help to keep patient and public voice independent đź“Ł

NHS Modernisation Bill proposes the abolition of the Healthwatch network, including Healthwatch Milton Keynes

This means the complete loss of any independent mechanism for gathering patient feedback. NHS services will, in effect, be 'marking their own homework'.

Minority communities, the elderly, disadvantaged, and those with complex health needs will particularly be affected.

Before MPs gather on 1 June to hear these proposals in full, we now have the brief opportunity to contact local MPs and highlight the negative impact of abolishing local Healthwatch - including Healthwatch Milton Keynes.

To help you do this, we've put together some essential guidance on what is being proposed, why it matters, and how to voice your concerns. We've also created a template letter so you write to your MP to voice your concerns, if you'd like to show your support.
