Annual Report 2007

Membership

Around 40 members at present mainly clinical but some academic.

Meetings

Our regular meetings occur quarterly and last 3 hours. They consist of a talk / workshop, usually led by someone from within the region (with an emphasis on clinical practice and lasting 1.5 hours), a business section, and a short time for members from across the region to catch up with each other. Once a year we hold a day long meeting with presentations by people from across the region focusing on their clinical practice.

Over this last year the main focus of our energy has been gearing up to host the 2008 conference.

Quarterly Meetings
Reasonably well attended – around 15 people per meeting.

Talks on:
Feedback from PSIGE 2007 conference – number of speakers
The experience of the children of younger people with dementia – Nathalie Garbutt.
Brief Psychotherapy – Carol Martin

Extraordinary meetings:
Two meetings held. Used to evaluate and plan the older people teaching on the Leeds DClin course and to allocate placements across the region for the Leeds course.

Conference planning meetings
This group has met several times with the main foci being identifying and booking a venue for the conference, identifying a theme for the conference, booking keynote speakers, and shaping some ideas about workshops

Annual Day Long Meeting
The topics at this year’s event were Systemic thinking in clinical practice with older people II – Florrie Gullion, Feedback form the Driving and dementia conference in Scotland – Andrew Dunn, and Community Networks – Chris Rewston.

Training Events
This year we have not put on any major training events but we have identified a member of our geographical group to plan and coordinate training events:

Future plans
Working on planning the 2008 conference

More invited external speakers for local events.
