Do you or someone you know care for a family member or loved one?
At Oxleas, we host a monthly online Carers Group to offer support and information about the services we offer.
The group meets on the third Thursday of each month – which means the next meeting is due to take place on Thursday 21 April from 5pm to 6.30pm.
As well as providing carer support, the group offers an opportunity for carers to feed back to service managers from across Oxleas’ trustwide services.
If you are a carer and would like to find out more, please either email Janice Williamson, Mental Health Community Development Worker: Janice.williamson@nhs.net or call 020 8836 8574.
You will be given the link to join the meeting when you get in touch.
Media enquiries
The communications team provides a point of contact for journalists to respond to all media enquiries.
We are happy to help journalists represent the trust accurately, so please do get in touch to ensure your facts and information are up-to-date before publishing your story.
Our media team is responsible for:
- Responding to media queries
- Arranging interviews with our nationally and internationally renowned experts who can talk about some of the trust’s specialist topics
For all media enquiries Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, please email oxl-tr.communications@nhs.net where a member of the team will review and action your request.
If you have an urgent enquiry outside of office hours or at the weekend, please contact our director on call via the Bracton Centre switchboard on 01322 294300.
Filming and photography requests
We receive documentary, location and broadcast filming requests on a regular basis – we consider all proposals on an individual basis and will try to accommodate proposals where possible, if appropriate.
No photography or filming is permitted without prior arrangement and agreement. Our patients always come first and we have a duty to protect their safety and confidentiality. Anyone found filming or taking photographs on the trust premises without the permission of the trust’s communications team will be asked to leave by the security department and may face prosecution.
Unless agreed otherwise, film crews and photographers must be accompanied by a member of the Communications Team at all times.
