Wellbeing Matters Welcome to Wellbeing Matters, the newsletter from the Barnet Wellbeing Service Wellbeing Matters brings you fun and helpful ideas and articles to keep you cheerful and informed. For lots of information about what is available through the Wellbeing Service, click here to have a look at the new Barnet Wellbeing Service Website CB Plus Primary Care Group CB Plus Primary Care Group are looking for volunteers to join us. Our volunteers are dedicated to improving primary care services for patients in Barnet, if you are interested, please visit their webpage for more information. The group work on several projects throughout the year, one of these include raising awareness of the GP IPSOS survey, allowing patients to have a say in how their GP is performing. Please find more details below of the project below. In the Spring, the PCG asked Barnet residents to complete MiniPoll 1 regarding how aware they were of the annual IPSOS GPSurvey which asks patients to rate their own surgery. The PCG Mini Poll 1 found out that whilst 90% of residents said they were interested in knowing their surgery’s rating, only 17% knew of the Survey’s existence and only 11% knew how their surgery rated in relation to others in their ssarea. Mini Poll 2, still totally anonymous, extends our awareness raising exercise through face-to-face interviews and electronic polls. Mini Poll 2 includes 2 different questions from the first Poll. We are looking for all Barnet residents to answer this poll, particularly If you answered our first Poll! Your response will allow us to evaluate the difference our campaign has made: Mini Poll (2) How is your GP Surgery Doing? (ONLY for Barnet residents or patients with a GP Practice in Barnet borough) See E version here. These results will be fed back to IPSOS as Barnet’s patient voice. This continues your opportunity to be part of positive change! Each Newsletter, we bring you 5 activities or ideas based upon the 5 ways of Wellbeing.

Severe Mental Illness: Free Physical Health Checks The Barnet Wellbeing Service is encouraging people living with mental health conditions to have regular annual health checks provided by their GP. It is recommended by NHS England that these health checks happen once every year as they can reduce the risk of developing physical illnesses. We would like to invite you to book your physical health check. At a physical health check, the GP will: ​ Check your blood pressure. Measure your height and weight. Test your blood glucose for risk of diabetes. Check your blood cholesterol levels. And ask some questions about any smoking or alcohol habits. Your physical health is just as important as your mental health. We will be at various locations in Barnet to engage with the public, promoting the importance of this message - details of which will be published here and across our social media channels. Please email our Health and Wellbeing Manager Kolsum if you have any questions or would like to support this project in any way. kolsum.jahan@communitybarnet.org.uk

Suicide Prevention Awareness Month September marks Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, with World Suicide Prevention Day on 10th September. We are working with Public Health Barnet to bring a series of virtual presentations and talks focusing on suicide prevention delivered by various individuals and organisations throughout the month. ​ See below for all scheduled events and links to register. Week 1 Metropolitan Police - Role of the Police Wednesday, September 8th 10 AM (Click here to register) Suicide Prevention Officer Peter Frost PC talks through the Metropolitan Police Service’s role in suicide prevention, detailing their new strategy. Andy's Man Club Workshop Thursday, September 9th 10 AM (Join with Google Meet) Join by phone 020 3937 1356 (PIN: 890520474) Hear from Andy's Man Club about their work providing men with spaces to talk about their mental health openly. Andy's Man Club takes its name from Andrew Roberts, a man who sadly took his own life aged 23 in early 2016. Andy’s family had no inkling that he was suffering or struggling to the extent that he would do this, and as a result, looked deeper into male suicide and men’s mental health. They soon discovered that male suicide is the biggest killer of men under 50, with Male Mental Health surrounded by well-ingrained cultural stigma in the UK. Elaine Roberts and Luke Ambler are Andy’s Mum and Brother-in-Law, together they came up with the idea of Andy's Man Club, a group where men aged 18 and above can speak openly about their mental health in a judgment-free, non-clinical, confidential environment. Groups now operate nationwide and are completely volunteer-led, with the vast majority of group facilitators having first interacted with Andy's Man Club when they came through the door as a service user. Please note that whilst their support groups are for men only, this presentation is open to men and women.

#WHATSYOURTYPE? Ever Wondered What Your Blood Type Is? Now more than ever, the NHS needs you to give blood, especially those from underrepresented communities, but there's so much around donations that is still unclear. We want to help solve that so we have partnered with Black Femme Film , a black queer women led community collective to deliver a series of events over the coming weeks. Join us on 17 November from 19:00 on Twitter via Spaces with professionals and those affected by Sickle Cell Disease and blood donation for an informative conversation on blood donation. ​ We will be in the Roundhouse Camden on 21 Nov from 14:00 for a free sip and paint and afterparty. We will be joined by the NHS blood identification team which would give you a chance to identify your blood type. Sign up here
