Testimonials

Feedback for Sarah Morefield and our Annual Health Check project to support people with severe mental illness to attend their GP Practice for an annual check-up:

• “I was supported to attend and it made a difference. It helped my confidence otherwise I may not have gone. I had the check, I was called back as there was something about my blood. But all was ok and I will go back next year.”
• “I think it is important but I just couldn’t be bothered to make the appointment. When Independence Trust was doing it all for me it was great. I didn’t have to worry about forgetting either. I had a reminder text the day before which was really helpful”
• “I was nervous when I got the letter from Independence Trust but when I rang them that all changed. Lovely lady reassured me and although I had received information she explained it all again………very helpful. Everything was organised for me, I went, had the check and it was ok.”
• “I didn’t know I could have a check. The person that contacted me was super, explained everything and I decided I would go. She organised everything, let me know my appointment and reminded me the day before.”
