Hello! I am the new Involvement Worker for Klacksun and have been in post since the middle of November. I have been becoming more familiar with the role, attending meetings on behalf of Klacksun and trying to get to know the membership.
Hopefully everyone currently active in Klacksun has heard from me or had the opportunity to meet me. If not, what's stopping you! Please feel free to pop in and see me, I am available in the office on Tuesdays, Wednesday, Thursdays 'till 4pm and Fridays 9am-12pm (best phone to make sure I am not in a meeting first though, 01259 215048) or see me at one of Klacksun meetings on the last Wednesday of each month.
Updates and information on the sub-groups Klacksun are involved in will hopefully be winging it's way to you either by email or post over the next few weeks and months and I look forward to working with each of you in the future!
With thanks,
James Mackenzie. |

One of our main reasons for developing the website is to allow the widest cross section of people access to air their views and put forward suggestions for improvements to services.
Are you interested in having your say, putting Your Views across? We would love to hear from you. At the moment we are not able to gather views on a specific topic but would still like to hear from you via email. Remember that Integrated Mental Health Services in Clackmannanshire are interested in hearing what you have to say. Click on our NEWS section for details on Tell Us What You Think.

There are plenty of opportunities for people to get involved in a way they feel comfortable.
We meet on a monthly basis to discuss issues raised by people who use mental health services in Clackmannanshire and to work out the best ways to raise these issues. However, other people are also involved in meetings and groups with statutory and voluntary services, developing ways to ensure that information for people who use mental health services is readily accessible.
