Webinar: The Heart of Good Health: Supporting the Whole Person in Local Communities

Las Casas Institute

The Heart of Good Health: Supporting the Whole Person in Local Communities - A Webinar hosted by the Las Casas Institute, Blackfriars, Oxford will take place on Thursday 3 April from 6.30 - 7.45pm.

As the personal, social and economic costs of current approaches to healthcare rise, causing distress to patients and healthcare professionals, this webinar brings together experts and concerned individuals from the health service, the churches, and public life, to explore what a Catholic vision of the human person in society offers as an alternative in terms of public policy and local initiatives.

Speakers will be:

Sr Margaret Atkins CRSA, on: 'The Heart of Health - a vision for the Church and for society'

Professor James McManus, Director of Public Health, Wales, on: Theology meets health policy: a Catholic contribution to health policy starts theologically and proceeds practically'

Thomas Horton, Head of Community Justice at His Majesty's Prison and Probation Service in Wales on: 'Theology in action: probation and community.'
