Yesterday, FiP attended Hereford and Worcestershire's ICB’s Childrens Neurodiverse Care Pathways Workshop. It was empowering to meet professionals and Parent Carers wanting to see improvements and have the opportunity to evaluate current process. There is much work still to do.

@MaxSpanner1 Hi @MaxSpanner1. Yesterday, FiP attended ICB’s Childrens Neurodiverse Care Pathways Workshop. It was empowering to meet many professionals and Parent Carers wanting to see improvements and have the opportunity to evaluate current process. There is much work still to do.

@FiPWorcs I understand that there has been a complete absence of coproduction with this new pathway. Are you going to raise the issues that this will inevitably cause families, children and young people ? Or sit by the sidelines ?
