Helping us prepare the community sector for whatever Brexit may bring

With Brexit on the horizon, a lot of focus in the media has been around the impact on business and the economy. However, the PPNs operating in the North West Region also realise that there are huge concerns among our community groups regarding the potential impact of Brexit on everyday life and, most importantly, your health and wellbeing.
 
The NWR PPN network is planning to host a post Brexit event for community groups which will focus on what has actually happened and how it is likely to affect both individuals and the community as they go about their everyday lives. In order to make this event as useful to you as possible, we want to first try and capture your real fears and concerns, everything from how this might affect access to medical care, will your daily commute be affected, will your group funding opportunities change, what the hit on your weekly shop might be or the effect, if any, on your social connections.
 
By letting us know this information, we can try to ensure that our Brexit event will respond to as many of your issues as possible, letting you know where your concerns were unfounded, where the implications of Brexit will affect you most and what you need to do about it.
