We make sure NHS leaders and other decision makers listen to your experiences and we encourage them to involve the public in making services better for everyone.

You have the power to make a difference

You might think that your feedback doesn't have the power to change how health and social care services run. We want to show you that isn't the case.

Healthwatch has broadened my horizons in a myriad of ways. Working in this organisation as a volunteer has not only made me gain confidence in the professional world but has also expanded my knowledge around healthcare.
