2 What does the service provide? The service encourages and empowers homeless and vulnerable people to gain control of their own health and determine their own lives and future. We offer health advice, information and support to homeless and vulnerable people to empower and enable them to make informed decisions about their health. We also offer advocacy with regard to health related issues. The team monitors the health and well being of homeless and vulnerable families and works in partnership with appropriate agencies. The team acknowledges that the best way to meet the complex needs of service users is to work in partnership, believing that every person regardless of their age, race, religion, sexual identity, disability or lifestyle should have a safe place to live, and be empowered to lead a long, healthy life, free from disease and illness. It is important to know that people can become homeless through no fault of their own i.e. parents unwilling to accommodate, domestic abuse, illegal evictions, and loss of National Asylum Seeker Supported properties when claiming asylum etc. Contact Details NAME ROLE E.MAIL ADDRESS TELEPHONE Margaret Team Leader margaret.somers@brid Somers gewater.nhs.uk Paula Johnson Jackie Miller Angela Duckworth Ray Featherstone Elsey Geoff Carol Roberts Public Health / RHV Public Health Community / TB service Community Support ry paula.johnson@bridge water.nhs.uk jackie.miller@bridgewa ter.nhs.uk angela.duckworth@bri dgewater.nhs.uk ray.featherston@bridg ewater.nhs.uk Geoffrey.elsey@bridge water.nhs.uk carol.roberts@bridgew ater.nhs.uk / The team have already won a number of awards for their achievements in recognising and responding to this.

3 Team Mission Statement What do we offer? The Homeless and Vulnerable Persons Service believe that the key experts in the development of quality services for homeless and vulnerable people are clients themselves. It is the aim of the team to give users a voice in as many ways as possible and to ensure that their comments, views and suggestions are considered in all stages of service development. The team also acknowledges that the best way to meet the complex needs of the clients is to work in partnership with all relevant agencies and to welcome, respect and value the expertise and knowledge that other agencies can provide. Our belief is that every person, regardless of their age, race, religion, sexual identity, disability or life style should have a safe place to live. That they should be fully informed and empowered to lead long, healthy lives free from disease and illness. Children should be enabled to reach their full potential in a safe, happy family environment. Free access to all health services at the point of need.
