“What a fantastic and informative newsletter, thank you.” – VCSE worker, South Gloucestershire
The Dialogue is The Care Forum’s health and social care insight and engagement service supporting the West of England VCSE sector. Visit Project Updates for the latest updates on what we’re working on, Reports & Briefings for our published work, or Newsletter archives, collected by authority, enable you to look back at local stories over the last years.
