Drop-in sessions have been organised in July and August throughout Perth and Kinross, where we want to connect with our local communities and work together to plan for a better future.

These sessions will provide an opportunity for individuals to share their views of what is important to them and what services are vital for their health and wellbeing. An online survey will be made available for those unable to attend these sessions and to ensure as many people are able to contribute.

Jacquie Pepper, chief officer, Health and Social Care Partnership, said: “We strongly encourage everyone to attend the drop-in sessions to share their views. Your insights are invaluable in our joint effort to plan a better future together. We want to ensure that our health and social care services empower people to achieve their best physical and mental health and have access to quality care and support when they need it.”“
