Making Families Count Families event

Please help set Making Families Count (MFC) agenda to work with families and friends who want to improve services. MFC are inviting you to a meeting to let you help to shape their plan for improvement and change.

Making Families Count (MFC) is a not-for-profit community interest company. Our purpose is to work in partnership with health and care agencies to support the development of safer, more compassionate care by improving collaboration with families.

As part of our new Strategic Plan, MFC intends to build a movement of seriously harmed or traumatically bereaved families who want to help to change how services are provided.

This serious harm or bereavement could have arisen in circumstances such as neglect, medical errors, adult children with learning disabilities who died in receipt of services, friends or family who died by suicide, (whether or not planned, and whether or not classified as suicide by a coroner),friends or family who died by homicide when the person who committed the crime was mentally ill.

We want more opportunities to tell our stories to health professionals and policy makers to influence change and improvements, and we want many more families and friends to be involved in MFC.

We very much hope you will want to be part of this movement.
