Being a Health Ambassador

by Sunny and Duncan

Hello, we are Sunny and Duncan. As health ambassadors we went out to different places to show how health services can be made better for people with a learning disability

We learnt many skills:

 being committed

 listening

 learned to challenge

 engage and talk to people with a learning disability who may need support to communicate their needs

 being punctual

 easy read

We also learnt to sell ourselves in a crowd and how to use zoom. We need to carry on using our skills to help people. We did as much as we possibly could.

At Bromley Library we did an Indian dancing session. Not many people came. We learnt that we need to advertise more.

Sunny says: it’s very important to carry on this project. If more funding was available we would continue with the project.

 to help improve the lives of people with a learning disability.

 educating health people

 inspiring health colleagues

 to go to places to talk about inspiring people

We worked like a family, helping each other. We are professional, calm and relaxed.

Duncan says:

We want people to have confidence in themselves.

We think the health ambassadors should continue:

 to have more hours to work on the project

 to reach more people

 to work in more boroughs
