Barnet Physical and Sensory Impairment Partnership Board (PSIPB)
In 2003, Barnet Council established the Barnet Physical and Sensory
Impairment Partnership Board to improve health and social care services for
people with a physical or sensory impairment.
Disabled People, carers and the voluntary sector are members of the Partnership Board together with health and Adult Social Services. In 2006, the members looked again at the role of the Partnership Board and agreed that it should not just focus on health and social care services but on how we can improve the lives of disabled people.
If you are interested in finding out more about what the Board does or if you would like to become a member of the Partnership Board, then contact DabB for further information. You can find out when the next meet is and/or download minutes of past meetings by visiting the PSIPB webpage by clicking the title above.
