The Hospice Community Engagement Network is for people who work in community engagement roles in hospices across the UK.
Community engagement roles include a variety of skills and cover a range of services and events but this group is specificially for people involved in client service development and delivery.
The Network provides a safe space where hospice community engagement workers can come together to:
share experiences and learn from each other's practice
celebrate a complex and sometimes isolated role
talk openly about opportunities, challenges and solutions
learn about hot topics
think about what's happening outside of the hospice community that can impact on our work.
