Service User Group

If you or somebody you have cared for have used the services of the Trust you could become a member of the Trust’s Service User Group and contribute to the development of our services. 

The Service User Group is, currently, a small group of friendly people and we would like to see new members joining the Group. To be a member you need to have either used any of the services that the Sara Lee Trust provides or be a family member/carer of someone who has used the services. The Group meets every two months for one and half hours.

The group has been involved in, amongst other things:

• The planning of our Therapy Centre in Sidley, along with the services it provides
• Giving feedback to the Trust on experiences of the services
• Developing new ideas to help the Trust

Sometimes there are papers to read ahead of the meetings but this does not involve a large amount of time. Although the Group is often dealing with serious matters there is always a lot of laughter too, not to mention the tea and biscuits.

For more information or if you would like to join the Group, please contact Kerry Evans, Services Manager, on 01424 456608 or email kerryevans@saraleetrust.org

"There is no doubt in my mind of the impact of the support of The Sara Lee Trust has had in my life since having cancer. Knowing I can help towards giving others the support and treatment that I myself had benefitted from, in such a terrifying stage of my life, feels so worthwhile."
