Patients of Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust (RDaSH) are being invited along to the quarterly Listen to Learn event.

The session is where staff listen to patients’ and carers’ experiences and use the feedback to enhance the services.

The event also allows people to find out how they can be involved in other work RDaSH does, such as interviewing for staff, in volunteering opportunities, and how they can work with staff on service developments.

The events are held in different locations each time and in April the meeting will be staged at the Unity Centre, St Leonard’s Road, Rotherham.

Cheryl Watkinson, RDaSH’s membership and engagement facilitator, said: “Why not come along to our meeting and get involved?

“We love to hear your experiences and you can also get involved in projects with us.
