HSCP Day 2022 - Recognition, Reflection and Renewal Wednesday, 27th April, 2022

The theme for this year’s HSCP Day is Recognition, Reflection and Renewal

Recognition – We want to recognise the effort, above and beyond the call of duty, for service users/patients as well as the sacrifices HSCP and all staff have made over the past two years.

Reflection – This is an opportunity to reflect and remember the loss on so many levels during the pandemic. A chance to reflect on the changes to our lives and work and what we might propose to carry forward.

Renewal – A chance to recharge and take time for ourselves to refresh and recover and think about the future.

The National HSCP Office are planning a live virtual event to mark the Day – further information to follow.

We encourage local events involving service users/patients and students together with HSCP.  We would be pleased to hear about what you are planning and if you would like to share your plans/ideas for the day you might like to do that via Twitter.

Please remember to use the hashtags #HSCPDeliver and #HSCPDay2022
