Dear Greenwich Resident,

 

As part of the Deep Engagement work with neighbourhoods and communities, we are preparing an initial engagement event with Caribbean communities in Greenwich on 4th May.

 

Please find the full invite below, and do pass on to any local Caribbean residents/organisations who might be interested in the event.

 

Caribbean Community, COVID-19 and Recovery – Connecting Communities in the Royal Borough of Greenwich 

 

The Royal Borough of Greenwich Public Health Team would like to invite you to a workshop to discuss the Caribbean Community, COVID-19 and recovery. 

 

The Council want to work in partnership with local communities who are most at risk from Covid-19, which includes the Caribbean community. The programme over the next 5-6 months is to work with a broad range of communities, both at geographical neighbourhood levels, as well as with specific 'communities of interest.'   

 

We are inviting you to an initial Caribbean 'Community of Interest' workshop focused on working with you.  The workshop will: 

 

• Give more background to the wider programme. 
• Explore the key challenges for residents from Caribbean heritage in relation to the pandemic and how they have responded. 
• Explore how we might work together to address key challenges, for example using community solutions, activity and assets, cross-agency and partnership working.
• Answer questions, where we can, on what's on offer to keep people safe going forward.

 

This first workshop is an opportunity to listen and build on our understanding of needs for Caribbean community in Greenwich and to set the groundwork for stronger relationships and collaboration for a better, safer future.   

 

Hosts: Royal Greenwich Public Health Team and Pastor Simon Esson
