Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust’s (NSFT) Recovery College is launching a new programme of community walking groups to support mental health and wellbeing across the region.

‘Steps for Support’ offers free, inclusive walks designed to help people improve both their mental and physical health in a relaxed and supportive environment. The groups provide a safe, low-pressure opportunity to connect with others, where participants can chat or simply be around people.

Carers and families visited the Forum in Norwich to find out about support offered to them and the people they care for. The annual Carers Information Day on Monday 8 June during Carers Week (8-14) June was organised by Care for Carers in partnership with Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust (NSFT) and saw 46 stands showcasing their offers.

The experience and knowledge of two staff members from Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust (NSFT) has been included in the first textbook dedicated specifically to advanced practice in mental health.

It will be a key resource for advanced practitioners, students, apprentices, clinical leaders and educators, and will be widely used across universities and healthcare courses to support the development of advanced mental health roles.

We would like to make patients, visitors and local residents aware that Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service will be carrying out a planned training exercise at Hellesdon Hospital on Thursday 18 June from approximately 18.30.
