Our Broadcast site has been revamped

The Digbeth Trust Broadcast blog has had a makeover to improve the look and navigation of the site.

It now has an easier to use navigation menu, brighter and bolder text layout, additional e-broadcast sign-up and search facilities.

Other social network features that have been added include:
Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/DigbethTrust
Twitter - https://twitter.com/#!/DigbethTrust
Please Note: These are very new and do not yet have much content.

We hope that you like our new design and layout, and welcome any feedback that you may have.

Thank you,
The Digbeth Trust Team

Learning and Work services – Digbeth Trust

Learning and Work services are services in Birmingham that help people with mental health needs to gain opportunities around employment, volunteering and education.

The overall goal of this service is to ensure that individuals that access the service benefit from this experience with the hope that one day they may find employment.

The purpose of this focus group event is to obtain the views of community organisations across the city whose work encompasses mental health issues in order to inform the Joint Commissioning Team how future Learning and Work services for mental health should best function.

 TIME:         10:00am – 12:00 noon

DATE:        Wednesday 7 th December 2011

VENUE:    The Waterside Room
