We would like to invite you to a free workshop where we will present and discuss the findings of a study about satisfaction with social care services among Bangladeshi, Pakistani and white British people. The study has been conducted by NatCen Social Research, the University of Leeds and the University of Stirling funded by the NIHR School for Social Care Research.

There will be three workshops: in Leeds, Birmingham and London where the research was carried out.  The workshops will provide an opportunity for service users, care providers, local authorities, policy makers, practitioners, charities and researchers to hear the findings and provide input into the resulting recommendations.

The recommendations will relate to how providers and local authorities can best provide services which meet the needs of diverse communities and how monitoring information on satisfaction with care can be collected in a way which is comparable among different groups.

Workshops dates and venues:

Leeds: 24^th October, at the University of Leeds, chaired by Mick Ward from Leeds City Council 

London: 4th November, at London School of Economics, chaired by Patricia Kearney, Director of Innovation and Development , Social Care Institute for Excellence (SCIE)

Birmingham: 20^th November, at the Saffron Centre, Highgate, Lisa Smith, Research and Development Manager, Research in Practice for Adults (RIPFA)
