Tell us about your care

All health and social care services across our area have been affected by the coronavirus pandemic. 

By sharing what you tell us with our local NHS and care organisations, local people can be better protected and stay safe and well.

Share your views

Our Covid-19 survey has closed and the findings are helping our NHS and care services safely re-start services after the peak of the pandemic. 

Your health and care during Covid 

Over 1,000 people responded to the survey and shared their experiences. Thank you to everyone who completed the survey. And thank you to our local health and care partners, voluntary organisations and community groups who helped promote it and encourage people to get involved.

Our final Covid report highlights the health and care struggles of some of the most disadvantaged in our communities.

Covid briefings

In July, August and September 2020, we published three Covid briefings to share your experiences with the people planning the local and national response to the pandemic.

These helped local NHS and care services understand how changes to health and care services had affected you and your loved ones. They also included your views on community support and how the pandemic was affecting your mental health.

Advice and information

Healthwatch plays an important role in providing advice and pointing people in the right direction for the support they need.

We can help you find health or social care services near to you.  And let you know what your options are if you have a concern or want to complain about local services. 

We can also offer one to one information to help you with your choices.
