What matters most to you?

Over the coming weeks, our staff will be having conversations with people who use our services, their families and carers as part of Your Voice Matters.

We're asking three simple questions to help us understand what's important to local people and what health and social care services should look like in the future.

Watch our Chief Officer, Billy McClean, explain more and why your voice matters.

As World Breastfeeding Week comes to a close, we're celebrating something that can make all the difference to breastfeeding mums: feeling welcome.

For local mums Naomi and Emma, Bernie's Cafe Deli in Bridge of Weir is one of those places.

A place where they can feed their babies, Tilly and Myles, without worrying about being judged. A place with a friendly welcome and staff who help make breastfeeding feel completely normal.

That's why they're helping shine a light on the Breastfeeding Friendly Scotland Scheme.

Alongside Tilly's proud big sister Zoe and Bernie's Café team member Abbie, they're showing how local businesses can play an important role in supporting breastfeeding families in our communities.

Emma also spoke about the support she received from her midwives, health visitor and infant feeding team when starting her breastfeeding journey, while Naomi reflected on the support from her employer that helped her continue breastfeeding when she returned to work.

A huge thank you to Bernie's Café, Abbie, Naomi, Emma and their families for helping make Renfrewshire a place where breastfeeding families feel supported and welcome.

Johnstone Day Centre said aloha earlier this month, when the team brought a wee bit of Hawaii into the centre for a themed week.

There was music playing, people getting involved in different activities, and plenty of laughs along the way.

Everyone joined in, staff and service users alike. It was full of energy. A lovely example of the kind of atmosphere the team create every day.
