Ged Boyd - Derwentside Representative

I have gained a wide and varied knowledge across the health and social care agenda.  I originally was involved with the mental health day services in Derwentside area.  Representing service users on issues as to the way services were being changed.  This led me to become a member of the CWF.  During this time I have experienced working alongside other agencies, including Durham PCT, DCC, CANVAS, NEMHDU, TEWV.  This body of work has included communicating and networking with various social organisation, giving me a relevant awareness and understanding of a whole range of social issues.  I am currently representing LINk in a Durham and Easington workshop to improve and develop the services received in the assessment process for people with mental health problems (Crisis Team and CHTT’s).  I have also been involved in the local Time to Change (anti-stigma) campaign.

I consider myself a good communicator, with the ability to work with a wide range of people, and I have a desire to improve the way services are designed, commissioned and delivered across the social care agenda.
