Have you consulted on

🪧Size, colour and design of signage
🪑Shape and rigidity of furniture

💜Michael and Robert, Pro-Active Community members with lived experience of learning disability, autism and acquired brain injury, have been consulted on their opinions and ideas to create the best experience for those visiting the new Surrey building for First Community Health and Care and NHS .

🤝Joining Helen Guest, also from Pro Active Community, Kate Kent, Service Manager for Transformation and John Hindson, Head of Estates, Michael and Robert have provided the design team with a lot of great additions and ideas not currently in place to provide the best inclusive, accessible patient experience possible.

🎉Thank you to Joanne Hayward at First Community Health and Care for ensuring all across the locality are involved in these important decisions.
