PCN Updates
Just a reminder, that there is a template available on EMIS for PCNs to record discussions with patients. A guide for how to access this is available here. Use of the template is completely optional but it is helpful for capturing all of the great work being done by PCNs in north Southwark!

Imagining Futures
The Imagining Futures project is currently recruiting young people to its 2019 round of free skills groups and is encouraging referrals from GPs. Weekly groups will combine expert mental health provision with front-line arts participation in a ten month programme for young women aged 14-18 years with emotional difficulties/dysregulation, who have a history of self-harming or attempted suicide. Priority will be given to individuals who are currently unable to access routine clinical services for whatever reason.
Please see their website for further details. To refer to the programme, email Imagining Futures programme team or call 07493 272 294.
