Chair's Communications
Minutes:
Age Friendly City Project
3.1 The Chair informed members that he would be attending a European event in Dublin to discuss the Age Friendly City Project. The event was accredited by the World Health Programme. He would report back on the event at a future meeting.
Healthwatch
3.2 Robert Brown informed members that Healthwatch Brighton and Hove was currently in the process of being established. There was a development/set up phase until July 2013. A number of ex-LINk volunteers had formed a Transition Group in the interim to carry out some project work and attend meetings such as the HWB. In July, new Healthwatch structures would be in place, and the Transition Group would hand its work over to these new structures. A process for selecting a representative to the Health & Wellbeing Board would be undertaken. In the meantime Board members were encouraged to sign up to the Healthwatch magazine, so that they could stay in touch with the work Healthwatch was carrying out. The healthwatch website was www.healthwatchbrightonandhove.co.uk
